Survey: Guardianships and Care Facilities under COVID-19
As our nation fights the COVID-19 virus pandemic, the people most vulnerable have been our elderly in convalescent care facilities.  

Wards under guardianship are sometimes moved out of an existing living environment and placed into one of these facilities.  We are interested if the health and well being of your loved one has been put at risk due to the actions of a professional guardian or if an Emergency guardianship has been enacted during COVID-19 restrictions.  
 
COVID-19 and Care Facilities:

Even if your loved one is not under a guardianship, we still encourage you to fill out the survey to provide us with information about care facilities and their response to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Some questions have an "Other" option that allows you to enter a response that is not already provided.  Please try to keep these entry's brief.  Provide additional information in additional comment fields if needed.

After you enter the information and questions below, please press SUBMIT.
