Heidi,
My sister and I share "Enduring power of attorney" for my mother.
There is also a "Tempory power of attorney" for short periods.
She is certainly not incapacitated and has full faculties.
Regardless of her condition and even though she can still run her own affairs, both my sister and I acting together can over rule any financial situation that she gets herself into by mistake or otherwise.
Power of Attorney is more or less legally permanent unless revoked and done all over again unless it is temporary.
A power of attorney does not over ride an executor of a will unless specified.
Full details can be found on the Australian Attorney General's website.
