Yes. Social services can come anytime if they have reason to believe mom is abused, neglected, or even if they suspect she is self-neglecting.

Having POA does not supersede any social services, doctor intervention rights to check on and verify an individual is safe, healthy and managing.

If you have nothing to hide and mom is doing well then allow their visit and honestly answer questions and address their concerns. They will eventually close the case. They have bigger fish to fry.

If they have suspicion or have had a report from someone, Athena they will continue to do their job and investigate.

Well all is well but i have a bad btother who has stolen her money and . Insists she goes out to meet him he won't visit at home ...and I think it's strange that as try to get mum out to meet him ..because he won't visit her at her home even though she as Alzheimer's very poor eye sight with glocoma and arthritas in her lower back and in a lot of pain ....I find it terrible that ss are thinking not of mum's welfare but of this man who as not seen his mum for almost a year ....there happy mum is well looked after and safe
