Answer to Florida Court Forms Question
Dear Carol,
The type of form that you are looking for is called a "Limited Non-Durable Power of Attorney for Minor Child(ren) Care".
It allows a designated individual to authorize any or all of the following:
- to consent for emergency medical treatment;
- to authorize all necessary medical treatment, including surgery and hospitalization;
- to provide for the safety of the child;
- to provide for the education, and welfare of the child;
- to provide for enrollment in a school or sport activities;
- to sign documents in connection with the care and medical treatment;
- to perform any parental acts regarding discipline and supervision, arbitration of disputes,
- to act as a guardian for custody of the child;
other powers regarding your child (for example: travel arrangements, picking the child up from school, etc).
In a quick search online I was able to locate a
free form. You can copy and paste this free form into your own text editor or word processor and edit to suit your particular needs.
