I am employed at a nursing home and recently became a court appointed guardian over 2 residents (more work than I ever imagined). Could I charge the nursing home for poa fees? When I was initially asked to take this on I was told I could by the administrator, but turns out it’s not so simple. Neither resident has living family members, estate or property. I feel as though I was misled about the amount of work I would be taking on and any compensation. I love these 2 residents dearly, but feel as though I am entitled to something for all the extra work I’m putting in, not necessarily from the residents but the facility. Thank you for any help or direction!
That is who you should ask. It is entirely possible the facility is being paid for this service and not paying you.
Go to the court that granted guardianship.
