Here’s the question : Is the sister permitted to petition the court as an individual, with decades of medical records to back her request, for temporary guardianship / POA to manage her sister’s affairs until the medical and home life is more stable? If so, how does she go about it?

Probably very state dependent. http://jennyhatchjusticeproject.org/50_state_review has some comparison of various states’ guardianship laws, although the site appears to be more focused on stopping abusive guardianships forced upon those who do not need them.
