An appointment of Enduring Guardian allows you to appoint someone to make health and lifestyle decisions for you if you can’t make those decisions for yourself. An enduring guardian will be able to decide where you live, what healthcare you receive and consent to the carrying out of medical and dental treatment on you.
Like an attorney (under an enduring power of attorney), your enduring guardian should be someone you trust to make decisions for you in your best interests, based on what you would like to happen to you in certain situations. You should choose someone who will decide things in your best interests, who understands that the right decision is not always the easy, and who will decide what is right for you even if it is hard.
