My father passed away three years ago and I have since taken care of all transfers, etc. to my mom. But I am wondering if I need a new POA, for dealing with her things, or is the old, joint POA still in effect?

Find Care & Housing
If you are your mother's POA then you will remain her POA.

Is your mother now passed well into dementia and is unable to handle her own financials? If this is the case, and your father has now died, I would simply attend an hour of time with an Elder Law Attorney. You are likely also the one who is handling your father's Estate? You will need an attorney for that, so a Trust and Estate Attorney or Probate attorney is likely fine to run your papers past to make certain that all is in order.

I am assuming you were already acting for your father and your mother before his death.
