My Mom is in assisted living, I have been paying a lady to come and see her, it's been like 4 times so far, I write her a money order and then reimburse myself. My Mom is ok with money, and the will says no one can sue or or they will inheritance, am I at any risk here? It's not really caregiving it's just visiting her, she already is in an assisted living nursing home that costs 4,500 a month. I write down on every check reemursement and save money orders. Will anyone look back on POA stuff? She has enough income for over the 5 year mark, I want to make sure to protect myself and not cause any problems after the fact.
Are you concerned that you might be disqualifying her for Medicaid? I think that if she is alone a lot, arranging for a visitor is an appropriate use of her money. She would be allowed to spend money on meals at restaurants, so how is this different?
