Curious why your Dad hadn't try to correct this situation with the methadone long before now. Has he been with your stepmom for 20 years or was she on methadone when he met and married her recently?

Alert the hospital to the fact that she is an addict and ask the social worker to seek protective custody of your father. She can do that.
