I have been taki g care of her since my father passed away. No help from my two brothers. One brother has been claiming my mother since 2010. He has maybe seen her five times. I want to make the decisions for my mother.

If your mother wants you to have Power of Attorney for her and she is cognitively competent -- that is, she understands the meaning of what she is doing -- she can fill out an appropriate form, have her signature notarized, and, in some locations, register it. Since there is some family conflict involved (with your brother) I highly recommend that you and your mother have the help of an attorney who specializes in Elder Law.

Do you mean that your brother has been claiming care of your mother as a tax deduction, even though you're taking care of her? Your profile states that she's in a nursing home. If he's claiming her as a dependent on his tax returns, he's in big trouble.

Notorazing her signature on POA , registering with the City, possibly, but is she documented as having dementia? She is cognitive?
