Elder law: Does family need POA, Guardianship, Health Advocate, Something else?
Asked on Mar. 22, 2020 ,  4 Answers

Elderly couple, both retired, both still active but with health issues. Adult children, only one shared between them. House they live in was in wife and some of her children's names but now in her name alone. Her health has been taking a turn towards the worse. He has given EMTs/hospital incorrect information regarding her health and on some occasions not even told anyone she was sick until family came to check on her. There are also concerns over his presence in hospital making her worse (e.g. he is absent for days or so, she does better, he comes to hospital, and she's worse). Family wants POA that will ensure one of her children are consulted for medical questions if she is incapacitated because he doesn't keep up on her conditions and just says she has what he has. They would ban him from hospital if they could. She has a will and is concerned he will try to remove family members living in her house if she dies first. He has threatened to kick them out while she is in hospital and gotten violent towards some. Family focused on her health - want her to sell house and relocate to where she can be active but have proper care. She won't divorce. Is POA & Will enough to cover them?
