What Alva (she is a retired Nurse) said.

A change in mental status like this needs to be reported to grandma's doctor immediately.

A UTI is the first thing that needs to be ruled out.

I believe you are looking at classic symptom of Urinary Tract Infection in an elderly person. Please see that a urinalysis is run soon as possible. You can also get dipsticks at a pharmacy over the counter; ask the pharmacist how to use it. If this continues you may be looking at emergency transport to hospital.
