  • Yes, Power of Attorney can be taken away if that person is mentally ill and the family of the person that requested the Power of Attorney deems fit to have that power taken away from the Power of Attorney. The Power of Attorney is an important action to look after particularly the financial affairs; bill paying, etc., of a sole person.

How can you get power of attorney for your mother who has senile dementia?

Your father can execute a POA and name you as his attorney in fact. If your father wants to grant a POA to you then you should make an appointment with an attorney and go together. Your mother doesn't need to play any part in that process and she doesn't need to know that you have been granted a POA for your father. The POA granted to your mother should be revoked. However, if your father is too ill to make that decision then you need to consult with an attorney about petitioning the court for appointment as your father's guardian or conservator. You could discuss your mother's condition at the same time. You may want or need to gain some legal power to handle her affairs as well.

How do you obtain power of attorney for a mentally ill family member to keep them from leaving a medically necessary environment?

You cannot 'obtain' a power of attorney. A 'POA' can only be granted by the individual who is voluntarily granting that power themselves, to someone else. It cannot be coerced or it becomes illegal and invalid. You CAN obtain a court ordered "guardianship" over someone who you believe to be mentally/physically incapable of taking care of themselves or their obligations. You must petition the court and a hearing will be held to determine if the person is, or is not, legally competent. You must show the court good reason (probably including medical/psychiatric testimony) as to why it should order that person's individual rights taken away and given to you.
