I am a Donee appointed with property and affairs powers. Can I be made personally liable for debts of the Donor, after the Donor has lost mental capacity?

A Donee cannot be made personally liable for debts of the Donor. However, a Donee has the duty of acting in the Donor’s best interests within the scope of the authority as stated in the LPA. For a Property & Affairs Donee, this could include dealing with the Donor’s financial affairs on his or her behalf.
