Can Relatives Override a Medical Power of Attorney to Put an Elder in a Nursing Home?
Are there Tx laws that allow only 1 or 2 siblings to put elder parent in a nusing home against the desires of the other 4 siblings. An intense mental testing is set up to see mom's ability to see what type of living arrangements she needs but 2 siblings said in TX they can put her in a nursing home even tho 2 other siblings have medical power of attorney.

How Do I Get to Decide Whether My Father Enters a Nursing Home or Not?
My father is 85 years old. We live in Southeast Michigan. We recently put him into an assisted living home. We will be paying for it with his social security money, and the benefits he gets from Aid and Attendance from being a World War II veteran. We moved him to this nursing home because he can no longer physically take care of himself. It will slowly drain his and my mother's expenses. However, it is the only logical way we can think of to keep them together. Now I believe a new problem is setting in. It is my opinion that he is beginning to show strong signs of dementia. It would not make much sense to drain their expenses in an assisted living home when he doesn't have memory of it. However, we have heard many horror stories about Medicaid nursing homes and the type of care they provide. My parents have their social security income (about $1950.00 per month), and $40,000 to $45,000 in savings left. My thought is that my father gets increasingly worse, the best thing to do would to be him to go to a nursing home, and have my mother live with my sister. If we considered this, is there any way we could have a say in which nursing home he has to live in?
