I think your speaking to your parents' physicians is the best thing you can do, in addition to contacting home health. He would not otherwise have any knowledge of their behaviours. I suspect that many geriatric patients are too embarassed to confide all their symptoms to their doctors, escpecially if it will reveal any kind of frailty. You're their best advocate.
and here's a hug from me
