PROCEDURE FOR REGISTRATION OF PERMANENT CARE

If you are caring for one of your infirm relatives who cannot provide for their own household self-care, you can arrange for such a person to receive permanent care and receive a number of benefits provided by law.

Why care is important to get it legally correct

Along with legal regulation, customary law and morality have great weight in society. Therefore, the issue of caring for elderly parents or other people who do not have the ability to lead a life themselves is considered by the people not requiring additional regulation. Such a moral duty is generally perceived as an axiom and not much attempt is made to analyze it from the standpoint of the legal plane. But martial law has greatly changed the attitude towards these things, since a person who practically carries out constant care for a relative, but who has not fixed this in the legal field, is subject to mobilization.

Given this fact, it is very important to arrange such care in time so that during interaction with representatives of the military registration and enlistment office you have the necessary documentation.

Also, the arrangement of permanent care for the needy opens up new opportunities in the context of a potential evacuation when you plan to go abroad. If you go to the status of an accompanying person, you can freely cross the state border. Such status is sufficient grounds when it is properly documented.

So, how can specialized lawyers help:

• Provide complete, comprehensive and comprehensive information, thanks to which you do not have to search for legislative norms on your own and compare their pre-war and current editions.
• Experts will guide you through each document and step-by-step algorithm of how permanent care is formalized.
• Help you to communicate with the relevant government authorities.

When a person tries to resolve such issues on his own, he spends a lot of time, effort and nerves, faced with bureaucratic nuances. If in a peacetime this is not so critical, then during a war this situation creates additional complications. When a summons comes to a person, he does not have documents to confirm the actual reality that is caring for an infirm relative. Therefore, turning to specialists who will help speed up the process qualitatively and close this issue saves the situation.

Is there permanent care identical to the guardianship regime?

This is a question we often hear from clients who are considering permanent care and are hesitant about whether this format of relationship with an infirm relative is optimal. Indeed, there is a significant difference between the mentioned legal concepts.

Permanent care can be established not only for a child or a person with persistent mental problems, but also for able-bodied people who, however, do not have the ability to work and are not able to provide themselves with household self-service. In simple words, we are talking about the fact that care can be established for a person who is not mentally ill, but at the same time, due to age or health status, he cannot take care of himself. In such a case, the consent of the person to be cared for is required to establish care.

Individuals who may need care include:

• those who have a disability in infancy;
• people with group I disability;
• those who have reached the age of 80 and cannot take care of themselves due to their age;
• mentally ill people with disabilities of groups I and II.

To apply for care, you need to prepare documents:

• Statement of the future caregiver.
• A statement of who will be cared for if it is an adult who is not mentally ill.
• Your passport and the passport of the mentioned person.
• Medical certificate.
• Certificate showing your registration of residence.
• Certificate of right to use or ownership of property.
• A certificate issued by a medical commission that you can care for and have sufficient health for this.
