The Washington Oath of Guardian is a declaration of commitment that is voluntarily taken by adults who serve as guardians for vulnerable adults in the state of Washington. Guardians are legally responsible for making decisions for the vulnerable person and managing their financial affairs. The oath outlines the duties and responsibilities of guardians, such as the duty to act with honesty and integrity, to act in the adult's best interests, and to comply with all relevant laws and regulations. It also requires the guardian to provide the court with a written report annually. There are two types of Washington Oath of Guardian: general guardianship and limited guardianship. General guardians are responsible for making all decisions regarding the vulnerable adult's personal, medical, and financial affairs. Limited guardians are responsible for making only certain decisions, such as those regarding the adult's financial affairs or medical treatment.
