Power of attorney: what you need to know

It can be temporary or permanent and the rules surrounding how it works and what it covers can vary in different parts of the UK. Louise Cooper talks to Sandra McDonald, Public Guardian Scotland, Holly Chantler, Board Member Solicitors for the Elderly and Partner Morrisons Solicitors, and George McNamara, Head of Policy, Alzheimer's Society.
