Asked on Jul 1, 2025

Can someone who has POA & is a caretaker of a family member in an assisted living facility receive compensation for services rendered from the family member’s estate?

I have a cousin that has taken on sole responsibility for the care of my aunt (95 yrs old), who is now in an assisted living facility. He has spent countless hours handling the sell of her house, enrolling her into an assisted living facility, daily visits, taking her to doctor’s visits and handling any issues that may arise. Family members of my aunt would like to compensate my cousin for all his time spent in caring for my aunt. Can my cousin be paid a monthly compensation from my aunt’s estate? Can each family member sign a statement (and have it notarized) that they are in agreement for this money to be paid monthly to our cousin for his services? What steps would we need to take to make this happen? We just want to make sure it is all done legally.

I would say yes, especially if it is in the power of attorney that they can be compensated. If you want to reduce that down to a payment agreement, you can; it may not be necessary, but you can definitely do that. I would start with the durable power of attorney first!

How does a durable power of attorney work when the person dies?

If you have a durable power of attorney and the person dies, do you still have the authority or does it go to the spouse. I have a durable power of attorney for my aunt, she just died and I'm trying to take care of her funeral and things. Does her husband now have the right to make decisions or myself with the durable power of attorney?

Sarah D.

Answered Nov 30, 2021

A Durable Power of attorney for finances (and healthcare) expires once your aunt dies. It is the executor of her will who now acts in that stead related to her finances. If the executor is the spouse, it will be his right to make the decisions. However, if all property was jointly owned between spouses, there is no need to probate the will under Colorado law.
