My mother was recently found wandering the streets with no coat and slippers n this weather. She went missing for two hours. And is trying to get out of my sisters house again. She needs 24 /7 care and hasd been offered a care home place subject to a 2 week psychiatric assessment, They came to pick her up a few days ago but she refused to go. So they said she will need a doctors certificate/ opinion and then we will have to apply for guardianship? POA doc says we have the right to decide her accommodation and safety. So why do we need to apply for guardianship? How long does it take? And what is involved?
I would be grateful for any information?
Thanks
