Any Suggestion For 82 Years Old Suffering From Bladder Infection?

My wife (age82) has a bag for urinating. She is now in hospital & now seems to have a bladder infection which is affecting her mind. She is now paranoid about everything, The doctors are treating her with antibiotics and say she has too much calcium in her system. Bill
