I think it's a great idea.

So it's a win win for the agency then, they get all the money for providing...nothing.
In theory this is a lovely idea, it's a shame there isn't a charity that could provide the same service without the costs to both as it's mutually beneficial, the cost of the care could offset the cost of the room?

Good god, I imagine if this takes off though people will just cut out the middleman.
