In some states and under specific contexts, guardianship and conservatorship can be used interchangeably, but there are differences. A guardian more commonly refers to someone who is appointed to care for a child or minor. Conservators typically tend to the affairs of an elderly or an individual who a court has determined is mentally incapacitated. Also, in a guardianship, the guardian is generally responsible for making health care and overall wellness decisions for their wards. The appointed conservator makes more financial decisions in a conservatorship, often regarding an estate or other assets.
