Dads nursing home wants to strip me of POA, but he can’t afford care

I am my dads durable and medical POA. The hearing is to strip me of POA and give it to nursing home. Purpose is for greed alone. I have worked with nursing home since start of the process and had NO CLUE as to how Medicaid worked or anything with nursing homes. The research was slowed further by different lawyers dropping the case; realizing how crazy it was or dealing with genius clerks from the nursing home and the hospital to even reach the pt if a lawyer. I say nursing home is doing this for greed bc I can’t see any other answer. I have disabilities but even the nursing home and lawyers were impressed by how I handled the situation. There’s too much evidence in favor of my ability to lead. The nursing homes attorney knew for a fact I would pay them. I was in touch with the nursing homes Medicaid rep and I would shuttle her updates on the research from my attorney. Eventually it became so complex it was communication direct between the opposing legal teams. It was discovered that the only exemption I could use for spend down is to either give my fathers entire estate to my mother or to the nursing home. My mother was hooked on alcohol and cigs and spent the family money. I saw her and she very much still has an addiction to spending money. My direct evidence for nursing home outright lying is that the court docs are dated. The dates don’t lie and the earliest I could find went back to May. My dad was admitted in March and I suspect process started then but took months to even reach the official court point. I ironically gave the nursing home the docs they needed. As per the Medicaid application I gave the bank statements and stock statements so they know my dads assets. IMO they’re even lying to get the judge to take the case. Nursing home didn’t tell the judge what my dads assets were. That is CRUCIAL info here! That’s the difference bw me being a lazy POS as they’re making me out to be vs trying my hardest but knowing there’s not enough money anyway. Nursing home lawyer never asked mine what home value was. That’s the second crucial bit of data. My dad is punished such that he can be caught bw private pay and Medicaid
