Hello everyone,
I'm new to this forum & looking for some advice with regard to what happens after an Enduring Power of Attorney is registered.
I was asked by my Aunt (DA) approximately 10 years ago to take on the role of Attorney following her diagnosis of a neurological disease. I was reluctant to take on this role as I thought it would cause distress to her partner, a lovely man with whom she has lived with for many many years. To cut a long story short the relationship between my DA and her partner has deteriorated. My DA's health has declined considerably and so has her mental health. She still has capacity however. DA has started to complain to me that her partner is is trying to get her into a care home. I don't think this is the case as he wouldn't want her to pay the care home fees. I decided to register the EPOA a couple of months ago & it has now been returned to me. I have made an appointment to see an advisor at her bank & wondered what happens next.
Thanks in advance. X
