What’s the difference between a Conservator and a Guardian?
The court appoints a Conservator only to manage a person’s finances. A Conservator does not make personal decisions about where a person lives or whom they associates with. Conservatorship is granted for some of the same reasons as a Guardianship. For example, some people may be able to handle a small amount of money on a daily basis, but they can’t manage their own money on a larger scale.
