Adult protection & court after a stroke in Basel

1 place for Adult protection & court within 30 km of Basel – responsible services first, then by distance, all with phone numbers.

Anyone who can no longer decide for themselves after a stroke is represented by an advance care mandate, a living will or – if both are missing – by the statutory right of representation of relatives. If that is not enough, the child and adult protection authority (KESB) sets up a guardianship.

The KESB is an authority, not an opponent: it checks whether representation by relatives is sufficient and often appoints guardians from within the family. Pro Infirmis, legal advice centres and the KESB itself advise on this. Draw up – while still possible – an advance care mandate.
