(1) A facility or program director shall assist residents in requesting a probate court to dismiss a guardian and name a successor guardian, or to dissolve a guardianship order.(2) If a facility or program director determines that a guardian of a resident should be replaced or that a guardianship should be dissolved, he shall petition the probate court. Procedures for making this determination shall be adopted by the governing body of a facility or program.(3) A facility or program director shall periodically review the need for guardianship where a facility or program staff member petitioned on behalf of a facility or program or where an interested person or entity filed a petition at the request of a staff member. This review shall be conducted once annually in the same manner as a determination of need for guardianship proceedings. In facilities, the review shall be made at the time of a periodic review. When the duration indicated in a court order of such a guardianship expires or is soon to expire, a person's continued need for the same type and scope of guardianship may be reviewed in the same manner as a periodic review.(4) A report of an informed consent board which concludes that an existing guardianship should be continued or renewed shall be made a part of the case record. Upon a recommendation that an expiring guardianship should be renewed, a facility or program director may cause a guardianship proceeding to be commenced pursuant to these rules.(5) A guardianship periodic review report may be used to the extent appropriate as part of a guardian's report to a court when the department or a county program has been appointed guardian.Mich.
