If you feel your grandmother
If you feel your grandmother is being financially abused, contact your state's dept of elderly services & report it. You can remain anonymous. They will step in & assess the situation. Also let the Social Security Administration know if her social security check is involved.
Consider hiring an attorney who specializes in elder law to review grandma's paperwork & work in her best interests.
RE: dementia
Has grandma been tested for a bladder infection? A bladder infection can bring on what seems to be dementia.
The Social Security Administration does not recognize POA's. They only recognize the Representative Payee they appoint. I am representative for a sister-in-law.
Be proactive on behalf of grandma. You sound like you are perfectly capable of handling the situation.
