Legal Question in Credit and Debt Law in Florida

Legal responsibility

I am currently assisting my 80 yr old mother with her affairs while she undergoes medical treatment. After medicare and BC/BS pay their share the remaining unpaid medical bills will exceed her net worth. I am a co-signer on her bank account so I can pay her bills while she is hospitalized etc. Can I be held accountable or responsible for any of her unpaid bills? My name is not on any of her obligations with crediter except her cell phone.
