As a start you could write requesting a copy of the records stating that you have welfare POA which they can have sight of on request and then take it from there.
I assume you're talking primarily about the records from the Care Home? Have you actually asked them for these records? Or are you perhaps not on happy terms with them?

“A test of a people is how it behaves toward the old. It is easy to love children. Even tyrants and dictators make a point of being fond of children. But the affection and care for the old, the incurable, the helpless are the true gold mines of a culture.”
