elder abuse?
My friend is living with her mom who has alzhiemers 24 hours a day since her dad is in the hospital from a stroke. Her oldest sister has power of attorney. What can she do?
Oldest daughter has power of attorney
Came and took mom’s checkbook and deed to the house
Stopped health net
Cleared out bank account
Receiving father’s social security check
Tried to get mother’s social security (youngest daughter went to the ss office to stop this)
May have reverse mortgage (no proof)
Youngest daughter
Has been caring for mother 24 hours a day. Mother has alzhiemers
Jackie has been paying the bills with her parents income for 6 months or more
She is living in with mom since the father had a stroke and he is still in the hospital
Mom’s check is the only income they have now - 300 a month
I think she should go to the welfare office and the district attorney. Any advise out there?

Sounds like a classic case of financial elder abuse. She should most definitely go to the DA's elder abuse unit. She should also apply for a conservatorship over both parents.
