The treatment will depend upon the physical fitness level of your father and severity of Alzheimer. If for for surgery, they surgery otherwise better to put in a catheter to empty the bladder. But proper assessment is required before any intervention.

It is very important to assess how much urine is remaining back n the bladder after voiding, most likely on account of prostate at this age. Also need to assess for any infection. Further treatment would depend on results of the same.
