Mother needs 24 hour care
My mother is in the late stages of dementia and needs 24 hour care. My 57 year old sister and her 18 year old son have lived with her for 15 years. My sister goes to work every day and claims my nephew takes care of her during the day, which I find hard to believe. He doesn't work, dropped out of school at 16, and my observation is that he sleeps until 3 o'clock. I am getting resistance from my sister regarding putting my mother in a nursing home since my sister would prefer my mother's house be given to her through a deed transferral. What do I have to do to get my mother in a nursing home and use her house as collateral as well as get my sister and nephew out of the house? I'm concerned that my sister will try to keep me from my mother once I do anything.
Re: Mother needs 24 hour care
You will need to apply as a guardian and give reasons as to why you would be a better guardian than your sister.
Did your mother ever sign a durable power of attorney prior to her condition? This is a document giving someone authority to act on her behalf before she became unable to manage her affairs. Often this is done when a Will is made.
