I am my mom's caregiver and live with her. I am considering taking over her lease. Does anyone have experience with this?

Mom (93) has lived in her apartment for 20 years. I have been staying with her for the past year and half and I take care of her. She shows signs of confusion and some early slight dementia.
I am considering taking over her lease before she starts declining.

You, or a landlord/tenant attorney needs to read the lease to determine if it can be assigned. If not, I don't know how you could "take it over."

Is the apartment a place you’d like to live when mom isn’t there any longer? As an apartment has no ownership you should be able to lease it as anyone could.
