Try speaking with a family member or the persons primary care physician, he may have local support numbers you can contact.
Notify the Department of Human Services (DHS) or local elder car ombudsmen - if the situation has risen to criminal, call local law enforcement. If the situation warrants, call an attorney who specializes in elder care or family law.
Call as many times as you need, to get help for this person who can't help them self.

If my sister had our Aunt cosign for a loan on her house and our Aunt has been diagnosed with alzheimer's is this legal?
If your aunt had already been diagnosed at the time she signed the loan she was not legally capable of signing a contract. However, your aunt's signature makes her legally responsible for payment of the loan until evidence is presented on her behalf that she was taken advantage of by your sister. You should consult with an attorney. Your sister's behavior should also be reported to the district attorney in your jurisdiction if she has taken advantage of a legally incapacitated person.
