A Power of Attorney allows you to appoint someone to manage your financial affairs if you become unable to do so. This may include handling bank accounts, selling property, or paying bills on your behalf.
What is an Enduring Guardian?
An Enduring Guardianship allows you to appoint a trusted person to make medical and lifestyle decisions for you, such as:

Medical treatments and procedures

Personal and health-related choices
Who Should You Appoint?
It’s crucial to choose someone you trust who has the financial or medical decision-making skills needed to act in your best interests. You can appoint multiple people and specify whether they must make
decisions together or separately.
