Your mother, not your siblings, decide who should visit her. This is true even if one of your siblings has become the court-appointed guardian of the person. (There is an exception if the proposed visitor has been abusive or exploitive.) If your mother is in a facility, discuss this with the administrator. If the administrator does not respect your mother's right to choose who visits her in her own home (which the facility has become), you might consider calling a local elder law attorney. You can use the Find a Lawyer function on the website of the National Academy of Elder Law Attorneys (www.naela.org)
