You can talk to his urologist about having a permanent catheter(supra pubic)placed. It is done surgically and the catheter is placed right above the belly button and your husband will not be able to pull it out as it has a balloon filled with saline solution to keep it in.
My late husband had one for the last 2 years of his life and it served its purpose well.
I don't know if that is helpful as you say that your husband is pulling the catheter bag off. I'm not sure how that can be done quite honestly as the tubing and bag are all connected, so I can only guess that he's just pulling everything off including the catheter itself.

He has a suprapubic catheter. It is attached with either a leg strap or stabilization device. He pulls off the tape or Velcro and yanks the tube leading to the bag from the attachment at the catheter.
