The Kentucky Minor Child Power of Attorney can be inserted into a situation where a parent/legal guardian needs to delegate certain authorities to another individual for the sake of their child’s well-being. In other words, when a minor is left in the temporary care of a non-parent, that person should be equipped with the ability to authorize any necessary treatment regarding medical and dental care, as well as the ability to manage the child’s schooling. To properly execute this document, it entails a description of the parties involved, the length of time it will last, and the requisite signatures that must be performed in the presence of a notary public.
