IMHO, there is no rental contract so your elderly acquaintance isn't a landlord. She has a guest turned squatter that won't leave. Next time she leaves the property, change the locks. Have all her crap boxed up and waiting for her when she returns. If she calls the police, invite them to come in and help her confirm none of her belongings are inside or let her remove anything that didn't get boxed up. But don't leave auntie by herself to deal with this derelict.
