This is exactly what my Mother does. She doesn't really need the $$, its more of a spending cash thing for her and something to keep busy with. Its a government program where they send someone in to help out the old folks who are mostly capable, but just need help with a few things around the house.
Its a great program because these people would otherwise be in a nursing home, when really they're just fine. They just maybe can't do the dishes or clean their house very well anymore.
An admirable profession, for sure. And since you are such a compassionate person, I bet it'd be just great for you...

If you cannot throw it at least you can always drink out of it. - Ernest Hemingway If it is life that you feel you are missing I can tell you where to find it. In the law courts, in business, in government. There is nothing occurring in the streets. Nothing but a dumbshow composed of the helpless and the impotent. -Cormac MacCarthy He who learns must suffer. And even in our sleep pain that cannot forget falls drop by drop upon the heart, and in our own despair, against our will, comes wisdom to us by the awful grace of God. - Aeschylus

Prepare to have your ears talked off.

Why, you young whipper snapper, when I was your age
-------------------- “Strengthened by contemplation and study, I will not fear my passions like a coward. My body I will give to pleasures, to diversions that I’ve dreamed of, to the most daring erotic desires, to the lustful impulses of my blood, without any fear at all, for whenever I will— and I will have the will, strengthened as I’ll be with contemplation and study— at the crucial moments I’ll recover my spirit as was before: ascetic.”
