Room to Care - for the elderly

Additional Information

'Room to Spare' is well advertised for placing children in need into foster homes. Fully funded giving the children caring homes and foster carers an income and a respected job.
I would ask the government to please debate 'Room to Care' - to assist the elderly in need to be cared for in relatives homes / other private homes in their communities. Could funding (as is appropriate) be provided for care in an ongoing home environment and the carers (to be registered/assessed) an income for a worthwhile job. The carers allowance as it is does not encourage care for the elderly. I would like to ask if the government will lead in raising the standard of 'Caring for the elderly' as a career choice and make it a respected role as is fostering children?
