Personal care
A Power of Attorney drawn up for personal care can authorize the agent to take decisions about your personal care and well being if you are unable to look after yourself. Personal care involves decisions about safety, hygiene, clothing, shelter, nutrition and health care. You have to be a minimum of 16 years in age to give POA for personal care. You should be able to know whether your agent is actually concerned about your well being and whether he / she will take decisions in your best interests.
Property
With a continuing POA, you can give power to the agent to take any decision about your property that would have been the same as yours if you were not incapacitated. According to the law, you have to be a minimum of 18 years in age to give a POA for property. You must be capable of knowing the type of property that you have, its approximate value and any obligations that are owned to friends / family members etc who are your dependants.
