Where to find help for my mom to see her doctors?

My mom won't take her medicine for dementia or see her doctors. Whom can help me in Pennsylvania?

crps, sometimes when we cannot get our parents to see a doctor, we have to wait until there is a fall or an illness, where we need to call 911, trip to the ER. Then the battery of tests.

As for your Mom not wanting to take her dementia meds. Any chance that med can be compounded to a liquid where you can add it to her water or juice? Or the compounded pharmacy can add kid's flavorings thus Mom may enjoy the pill if its taste like strawberry, etc.  Oh, there is an extra cost for compounding.
