Registration of guardianship over a disabled person of the 2nd group

Guardianship of a disabled person in the 2nd group is a topical topic in Ukraine. This is because the damage that was caused in connection with active military operations in the country is one of the factors that complicate life for persons with disabilities.

For example, such persons cannot independently evacuate to the nearest bomb shelter, as they are inaccessible to low-mobility population groups, leave for a safer place or, saving their lives, leave the territory of Ukraine.

That is why in this article we will talk about the legal features of the registration of guardianship over a disabled person of the 2nd group while analyzing Ukrainian legislation.

What types of disabilities exist in Ukraine?

Today, in Ukraine, the following types of disability are distinguished, which determine the degree of persistent disorder of body functions caused by a serious illness or injury, namely:

1 group– includes those citizens who have the most severe state of health and in this regard do not have the physical ability to self-care, perform elementary household functions, and therefore need to establish constant self-care;
2nd group– refers to those citizens who have persistent or chronic disorders in the body that arose as a result of illness or injury. However, a person in this group may already be capable of self-care, work in special conditions, and not need outside care;
3 group– refers to those citizens who have moderate disorders of the functioning of the body, these can be defects that arose in a person from birth (absence of one lung, etc.). That is, a person can work in easier conditions but needs to establish social protection.

This topic concerns disabled people in the 2nd group, so we will talk about them later.

Where to apply for registration of guardianship over a disabled person of the 2nd group?

The provisions of the Civil Code of Ukraine provide that guardianship in our country is established either by the court or by guardianship and guardianship authorities.
