It seems that UTIs can bring on depression-like symptoms in the elderly and definitely cause confusion and anxiety, according to her new home health care nurse. That is apparently very common in the elderly. The elderly person themselves usually can't see that because the infection doesn't often manifest with a lot of pain. It seems it's more the mental suffering how it manifests in the elderly.
I hope you find something that helps her.
