When is guardianship of a long term care facility resident appropriate? Why might guardianship be recommended by the facility or other professionals even if it isn't appropriate and the least restrictive alternative? What is the impact of guardianship on residents' rights? These and other issues are explored in a new podcast by the national long term care consumer advocacy group, The National Consumer Voice for Quality Long Term Care, in its Pursuing Quality Long Term Care series.
