Go to a family law attorney and they will file with your local county court to obtain a guardianship. Usually the parent/person would have to be declared incapacitated by either private doctors or a court appointed committee. Then you will attend a "hearing" where you will speak to a judge & s/he will either grant a guardianship or not.

If both parents sign over temporary custody to a grandparent can the parent who has physical custody terminate the guardianship and take the child back?

It depends on the State the parent and child reside in, the State the temporary legal guardianship was signed in, and weather or not a judge was involved. Usually a temporary guardianship is revocable by either of the natural parents, either by having a revocation notarized or by simply writing on their copy of the temporary guardianship form that such guardianship is being revoked with a signature and date of revocation. This is then presented to the temporary guardian and the child is turned straight over to the natural parent who now wishes guardianship returned to them. The temporary guardian can fight the issue and get the courts involved, but the vast majority of time things go the parents way in these regards. Again, it all goes back to circumstance and especially the State where this is all taking place. I would suggest googling "temporary guardianship rights", or see if you can look up the specific legal codes on guardianship in your state.
