Persons subject to adult guardianship are referred to as “wards”. There are situations where certain actions such as property management and contracts, production of documents for receiving social work services, and other such actions during the ward’s daily life can be hindered. Because of this, there is no end to the number of cases of consumer fraud by a third party due mainly to the deterioration of the ward’s decision making ability. To prevent many of these problems in daily life before they arise, the purposes of utilizing the adult guardianship system are “the assets of the ward are able to be utilized for the ward even if his/her decision making ability deteriorates”, and “future life decisions do not go against the wishes of the ward”. The details of the support to achieve these purposes consist of “asset management” and “personal supervision”. This paper will examine the process up to the utilization of the adult guardianship system by the social worker, through the example of a case where the injuria to a person with mental disability, who was being extorted, was prevented, including the appropriate support systems required so people with disabilities can go through daily life at ease.}, pages = {18--28}, title = {Social safety net for isolated persons with disabilities : With a focus on adult guardianship}, volume = {18}, year = {2018} }
