Detailed Answer:
Hi Dear !! Thanks for your query to HCM.
I reviewed facts of your query in context to your health issues.

My Opinion-
In My opinion, in the given situation your father has option of using DBS-Deep brain Stimulation- by- implanted electrodes controling the defective movements caused from degenerated basal ganglion region of midbrain.
Dear, yes,P.D.(parkinson's disease) has no treatments in later stages as the medicines which increase dopamine-MAO inhibiters-loose their effectiveness,as the basic defect is -that PD is degenerative disease of brain.
Pemvanserin is new entry medicine without dopamine dependence like in MAo inhibiters.Carbidopa if not tried also has better results for few yrs.
But the final answer with better quality life is possible with DBS with self nerve implant neurosurgery at special centers in Uk.
DBS with peripheral nerve implants from patients peripheral nerve is lately been under consideration in Uk,as this is allowed from FDA lately.
For this you would need to Consult Neurosurgeon and plan it, if you desire so.
