How to Be an Advocate for the Helpless
So often, our clients are alone and unable to fend for themselves. They might not realize they need help. Or if they do, they have no idea where to turn for assistance.
At other times, they’re the victims of unscrupulous family members or caretakers who hide the situation from others while taking advantage financially or in other ways.

DonateDecision-Making Principles
As guardian, GSI follows two basic decision-making principles.
Substituted Judgment: The case manager’s goal is to discover what the client would have wanted if he or she had capacity and could have communicated that decision. If possible, GSI then carries out the client’s wishes.
Best Interest: When it is impossible to learn what a client would want, GSI evaluates the risks and benefits of a course of action and decides what would best serve the client.
Applying these principles ensures that GSI preserves clients’ rights and preferences, while protecting them from abuse, neglect or exploitation.
