The power of attorney might be a good idea, provided they are lucid. But you say they are mentally ill? That poses a problem that should have been reckoned with earlier.
Anyway, you're idea is right one. There may be several legal avenues to protect the heirship, and in common law states, a will is not needed to do that.
