It depends on who'd involved (CPS etc.) and what exactly is happening with your sister and your mom.
Assuming it's appropriate, she would have to file a petition in probate court to establish guardianship. However, there are several issues that would have to be resolved before determining what may need to be done along the way...there's no way to determine whether it can or should be done just with what you wrote.
You can have your mother contact my office directly to discuss options. Costs can vary depending on what needs to be done and whether it's contested.
