Re: power of attorney/conservatorship
If the existing power of attorney has clause for successor holders, it is possible.
If not, you may need to petition a court in county where the patient resides for appointment of a conservator.
Let me know if this is something that you need help with.
Re: power of attorney/conservatorship
Follow the terms of the POA. What happens if you decline to act? Does go to the person you wish? If so, then resign.

If it can be done, it will have to be done by the person or persons with the existing power of attorney.
