Your grandmother can sign a new Durable Power of Attorney, revoking the old one, and present that to her current agent and everywhere the daughter may have used the DPOA, such as the bank. If she owns a home or other real estate, it should also be recorded in the county deed records. Texas has Remote Online Notaries so she should be able to sign a new Durable Power of Attorney even though she is in a nursing home.
