My mom was recently diagnosed with Dementia with Behavioral Disturbances. My dad is named on all the papers listed above. They are placing her in a rehab and said my dad needs to obtain Guardianship papers over her. I thought the DPOA would cover him making all the decisions about her healthcare and financials? I am probably jumping to soon to even ask. Cause they have not moved her yet. I am trying to protect both my parents.

We had to do this with MIL when she insisted she was going to take a cab home. Figure $3K if it is uncontested. From what you say, the court evaluator will most likely agree with and support the petition.
