How can I get my sisters to be transparent with care and finances of my Mom?

Lol

We have , it was cut off... we have done many things in the past, I drove almost 4 hrs to meet with an ADT Rep. that spoke Spanish so our Mother would understand that it would be user friendly and would be as simple as a push of the button in an Emergency , my controlling sisters said she wouldn't wear it and was a waste of money , a few months later she fell and was on the floor for 26 -27 hrs and afterwards I reiterated the importance , and nothing was done ... I have tenacity , they call it obsession, and our mother suffers and pays for it in suffering
Im meeting with ...a mediator in the next week , God as my witness I have tried and will show the timeline and emails, Im not out to win, its about our mothers Safety health and well being

Corporations are pretty transparent and their tax returns are public. Look yours up on the IRS website.

Getting my mom a cell phone didn't work. She complained about having to keep it charged. I'm expecting her to get a house phone as soon as she moves into a house but whether we'll be told the new address or phone number is questionable.

churchmouse, you indicated that Dpoa is not enforceable unless the mother is losing her ability to reason? is that the same for POA as well? my brother is being a bully. he has POA and doesn't consult me on anything. can he assert himself as POA if mom is still capable. for instance., she told me I could have anything from her house that I want.. He told me I am not to take, sell or give away anything. I told him that since mom is still coherant she can make her own decisions.. am I right?

Yes, you are right. Although coherent isn't quite the word: it's a question of mental capacity. Is she of sound mind, would a reasonable person agree that she is of sound mind.

The point about DPOA is that it survives the donor's permanent loss of mental capacity, whether that's through dementia, mental illness, injury, or whatever happens. And a DPOA can be annulled by the donor only while the donor is in his/her right mind.

Plain old power of attorney can be given by anyone to anyone for any purpose that they please. Supposing, oo I don't know, I was going abroad for a couple of months and wanted someone else to pay my bills for me. I could give that person power of attorney, limit it to whatever I wanted him to do on my behalf, and end it at a particular time. It's essentially just granting someone authority to act for you.

It makes my heart sink when I hear of your sort of situation. Your brother isn't acting for your mother's benefit as such, exactly - he's trying to keep her possessions in order, perhaps with an eye to administering her estate later on; and you can see why he wouldn't want bits and pieces disappearing at random. But don't you and your brother argue about it - it's for your mother to make her wishes plain to both of you.

You and your brother should approach your mother together and ask her what she wants done. If she wishes to give items to you (or anyone else) then of course she has a perfect right to do that. But she has also made your brother responsible for protecting her welfare, which includes making sure people don't walk off with stuff (I don't mean you, I mean "people", you know the sort). It's not fair of her not to tell him if she plans to give specific items away. Tell, not ask, she doesn't need his permission; but she should do him the courtesy of not making the job she's given him more difficult by making vague promises to you without telling him.
