How do I obtain both health care and financial power of attorney on behalf of elderly parent?

26 March 2009 2 Comments

I need to obtain health care and financial power of attorney on behalf of my grandma who has come down with Alzheimer’s Disease about a year ago
Her health is good, and recognizes me with no problem-she just has a short-term memory loss.

What’s complicating ths issue is that my grandma’s Canadian citizen and is in Korea right now. My dad is in Korea and cannot leave Korea due to work. I live in America so I’m the only one who can go to Canada to do anything on grandma’s behalf. So I need POA
(1) Is this possible at all when grandma and I cannot be physically together to sign the letter of attorney? If possible, how should we do this? If a letter of attorney was to be prepared by attorney in Korea, what additional steps are required to make sure the letter is legitimate?
(2) Can any attorney prepare a letter of attorney for us? (I mean, even a tax lawer?) What kind of attorney is best at doing this? How much does it cost?
(3) Is she considered not mentally competent due to AD?
