Friend is paying her own car insurance, utilities, groceries, cigarettes, fast food, etc. The little elderly lady supposedly gave friend her permission to use bank card. Elderly lady has been living at friends house for @ 6 months, she has not been seen by a Dr but is on blood pressure medication per her previous Dr. she used in her old hometown. APS has visited with both parties, and is checking bank statements. How long does this process usually take?
Do you know if she has a PoA? If so, this is who needs to be notified. If she doesn't seem to have a PoA calling APS was the right thing to do, but if she has adult children or a trustworthy family member then they should also be notified.
Elderly lady is living at friend’s house for six months.
I am guessing friend is taking care of her as she has dementia.
So is elderly lady paying rent, share of utilities, groceries?
