My brother has POA for health care but does not even notify me when my father took a fall and was sent to the hospital in an ambulance. My brother went surfing instead of notify me or anyone else in the family. We live in California. I also believe the POA is out dated and actually was written in 1998 and states it is only good for seven years.
Does that give him any rights conferred by law to withhold information?
Sorry that you are going through this.
Many people, it seems in todays world, have the right to act abominable.
There's also the possibility that he went surfing because it calmed him.
I'm going to check mine to see if there's any similar language.
