Legal Question in Family Law in Iowa

When you have a sole custody situation and the custodial parent should have to be hospitialized for an indefinite amount of time and is unable to care for the child would it then fall upon the noncustodial parent to care for the child regardless of a stepparent?? in this case the stepparent has not legally adopted the child.
