[QUOTE="witzend, post: 195279, member: 99"] You have power of attorney, so you need to act fast. Your sister could have your mom take that away in a heartbeat. Get an attorney to require your sister to give a true accounting to each sibling before requesting money. You could also give a directive as to what your sister can and can't bill the family for, and the level of care mom receives on a daily basis. I don't know what this "caregiver" is doing all day, but I would imagine it's sit around and watch tv. Your mom should have access at least a couple of times a week to outings and a senior center could supply that for less than $60 a day. But act fast. I would imagine your sister has already had your mom to a lawyer. If she had the POA changed, all you can do is contest it, the judge won't automatically overturn it, because your mom probably said that was what she wanted. [/QUOTE]
