Best lender tools when your parent can’t manage finances?

Hello! What banks/tools would you recommend when it's time to take over your parent's lender account?

My mother (possible mid-stage dementia, maybe Alzheimer's), can't manage her lender account and keeps getting scammed. I can't convince her to stop any of these recurring payments, and I can't stop her from giving out her lender information.

I'm thinking I need to get a new lender account under my name (I do have POA) and have her SS deposited there and pay all her bills from it, while just giving her a charge card, but what's the best lender to do that with? Or would it be better to get a new lender account but only give her a pre-paid charge card for purchases?
