Sister came in and took advantage of my dad’s Parkinson’s and now is making bad financial decisions

Find Care & Housing
I thank funkygrandma below for reminding us that you have posted before.

Quixtodd, if you are in rehab for alcoholism, or recently OUT of rehab and continuing your work in recovery, I think the best thing you can do is concentrate on your own health right now.

If you feel your father is endangered in anyway by your sister, or financial decisions she is making, then I would ask APS to do a wellness check for problems.

You have not returned to answer questions, and given that, this is about the best advice I have. Sorry, and wishing to remain in recovery and thrive.

What's your definition of "bad financial decisions"?

You don't ask an actual question question.

If you're worried she's financially abusing your Dad then take your actual hard evidence to a lawyer to stop her, if you're not the PoA. But if she's now his PoA then not sure this is going to go anywhere, especially if "bad decisions" is only your opinion not supported by any actual proof.

Who is POA?
Is your father competent to make his own decisions.
We need more details.

This is now your second post about the same thing.
Your first post said that your dad is in an assisted living facility and you're in rehab for your alcoholism, and that your sister has taken over helping your dad with his finances since he has some form of dementia.
The fact that you used the words "sibling rivalry" in your heading leads me to believe that you're now jealous that your sister is in control of your dads finances instead of you. Is that right?
If you feel she's up to no good with your dads finances you can always call APS and report the situation to them and let them investigate it.
But right now you need to just worry about maintaining your sobriety and getting the help that you need.
