Can I Put Grandfather In A Nursing Home If He Is Of Sound Mind And Absolutely Refuses?
Location: (Kentucky) I am the power of attorney for my grandfather. My uncle wants to put him in a nursing home and honestly he should go. He is in his right mind, but he falls down constantly. We recently took his keys away. He does not need to be driving. He falls out of the truck. He can barely get in a vehicle. He can barely even get around really. He can’t lift his hands above his head or even go grocery shopping alone. My uncle wants power of attorney but my grandfather gave it to me. He’s not going to give it to my uncle, but I’m in a hard spot because I don’t know what to do. I called the lawyer who did his well and he said that I can’t put him in a nursing home if he refuses because he’s in his sound mine. My uncle says that I can go to court and have him deemed unfit and put him in one. I'm not sure what to do or what I can do.
Edit. Thank you for the responses so far. As I thought my hands are tied because he wants to continue on as everything is ok. If I just take him to the grocery and the doctor and help as I can and he falls can I really get in trouble for that. He's difficult and honestly a huge liar. He lied to the doctor that he was fine and we don't come and see him enough. That's not true and he honestly doesn't want us there. He never had anything to do with his kids or grandkids. Only me. He manipulated the doctor.
