Power of attorney question

Mom and stepdad are going into assisted living. Mom wants me to have poa. Stepfather is fine with it but has dementia. They have a joint account. Is it necessary to close the account & reopen one in her name or can we just do it without him signing anything? His social security is directly deposited to their account & her Medicare supplement is debited from their account so we don't want to screw with that.

Finally moving Mom & step-dad to assisted living facility

Any suggestions to make it easier? Mom is being horrible about it. APS involved so she has no choice.
