A. If the court determines that the afflicted person is or may be in need of a guardian or conservator, or both, it shall order an investigation concerning the need for a guardian or conservator and shall appoint a suitable person or agency to conduct the investigation.
B. If the court finds that the afflicted person needs an immediate guardian or conservator to protect the afflicted person or to carry out alternatives to court ordered examination, treatment, monitoring, isolation or quarantine and there is no person qualified and willing to act in that capacity, the court may appoint a person or the public fiduciary to serve as a temporary guardian or conservator.
