If you have been acting as the POA, you must act responsibly, but you are not obligated to remain as POA forever. First, ask each of the other persons named on the POA if they are willing to be POA. If so, then you must transition to the next successor agent who is willing and able to act. If not, then the next best step will depend on a number of factors. You may want to file a Petition for Guardianship to nominate a state agency or another family member. You may want to consult with an elder abuse agency (even though no abuse may have been committed, these agencies generally look out for elderly persons who have no one to make decisions for them.) You may also be able to explore other options. In any event, I recommend that you seek out an attorney who is knowledgeable about "Guardianship" matters. Most attorneys, including myself, will provide you with a free consultation so that you can understand this a bit more.
