Who can be a patient's guardian?

I read that the Supreme Court questioned the appointment of the head of the psychosomatic department as a patient's guardian. I became curious: does a doctor working in a medical institution have the right to be a guardian of their patient? Are there any restrictions or special conditions for such an appointment, and how is this usually resolved in courts?

The child has a disability. I (mother) was appointed guardian. Is it possible to somehow change guardianship to the father? (If so, how to do it?) If he is a guardian, will he have a deferment from the draft?

Can a doctor be a patient's guardian?

I'm reading that the court appointed the head of the psychosomatic department as a guardian for his patient, and now a lot of questions have arisen. If a person is undergoing treatment in an institution, is it normal for the head of that department to become their official guardian? Won't there be a conflict of interest here, and is it legal at all? It seems to me that guardians should usually be relatives or close people, not medical workers of the institution where the ward is being treated. How should this work correctly under Ukrainian law?

Legality of appointing department head as patient's guardian

I saw news that the Supreme Court questioned the appointment of the head of the psychosomatic department as a patient's guardian and annulled the corresponding resolution. I am interested in whether an employee of such a department can indeed become a patient's guardian and what general restrictions or specific provisions exist in legislation regarding this? What grounds could lead to a refusal of such an appointment?
