A custody awards entails both legal and physical custody. Joint legal custody is typically awarded and gives both parents equal decision making authority regarding health, education and welfare. At the same time, one parent will be awarded the physical custody and the other parent will be awarded visitation. If the parents live in close proximity and can co-operate, it is possible for the judge to award joint physical custody.
