Seems likely something is draining the battery when you are away from the car for a week or more - often called a parasitic drain. A dodgy alternator rectifier is one way this could happen but there could be others. A battery isolator switch is a cheap way to address the symptoms but you could take fuses out while measuring the drain current to localise the offending device - boot light, glovebox light, radio etc.
