The Rocky Mountain Regional Veteran Affairs Medical Center created a guardianship social worker position to improve the guardianship process by developing subject matter expertise, infrastructure, and standardized procedures. In this brief report, we provide preliminary data on the impact of a guardianship social worker. Time to guardianship completion, mean lengths of stay (LOS), counts of completed guardianships, and cost estimates were compared before and after the guardianship social worker position was created. The mean time to complete guardianships decreased from 121.9 to 69.8 days (<i>p</i> = .13), the mean LOS for patients awaiting guardianship decreased from 129.8 to 117.2 days (<i>p</i> = .39), and the yearly counts of completed guardianships increased from 2 to 9 (<i>p</i> = .002). Estimated inpatient cost savings per patient was $56,244.
