The best option is for the custodial parent(s) to fax or express delivery a notarized letter of consent to the caregiver(s) allowing them to seek medical treatment for the minor children. In lieu of such, to obtain basic medical care the adult caregiver will need to file a request for temporary custody or guardianship in the appropriate state court (usually family or probate) in the county where the children are residing. Be advised, the court will want a detailed explanation of why the children are not with their parent(s) and why the issue of medical and other care was not addressed before the children were given into the care of other family members.
