With divorce and remarriage becoming more prevalent in today’s society, there is a greater possibility of conflicts between the second spouse and the children of the first marriage. These conflicts can become exacerbated when a parent becomes incapacitated or dies. Such conflicts are very painful for those involved and discourage healthy family relationships. A conservatee, who by definition cannot make decisions for him or herself regarding his or her health and finances, cannot make decisions regarding visitation with his or her children. Currently, the laws provide all rights relating to the care of loved ones to spouses, which leaves children without the basic rights to visit their ailing parents, to receive notice of hospitalizations or the death of a parent, or to be provided information regarding the burial of a parent.
Currently, the Conservatorship Law does not provide any right to children of conservatees to visit with their ailing parents. Although Catherine Falk was able to obtain an order for visitation from a court, that order was made at the complete discretion of the judge. Neither does the Conservatorship Law place a duty upon conservators to keep loved ones reasonably informed regarding the health of the conservatee, including providing notice of hospitalizations or death.
The Proposed Bill seeks to improve family relationships and provide options to children who are faced with being excluded from their ailing parent’s lives. The bill proposes changes to the Conservatorship Law that will provide an express right of children to visit their parents subject to the conservatorship, a right to be informed of hospitalizations and death of their parent, and to be notified of burial of their parent. Additionally, the Proposed Bill would amend the Health & Safety Code in order to require cemeteries to provide public access to records regarding burials.
