He had a covid test it was negative but they say copd, asthma, but the last few days hes constantly struggling, wheezing, out of breath and waking up in a panic having a hard time breathing. He refuses to go in, he signed something for POA I think a while ago since he came to be with us but I honestly don't think he can keep on like this. How can I get him in to the ER or doctor?

Getting him to the doctor..either you take him or you can call a medical transport company and they will transport him.
If he is having problems breathing you call emergency number.
Don't be hesitant to call because of COVID19 if it is an emergency then you have to call.
You can buy a pulse oximeter that you can use at home and keep track of oxygen levels. You can contact the doctor and ask at what point should you bring him in to the office or into the ER and do your own monitoring.
