I just read an article about how immigrants (to the us) working in elder care were more culturally suited than Americans to the work, having more respect for old age.

Same goes for immigrants in almost any country, or women, or minorities, or anyone who is willing to take a small amount of money for a lot of work. They have various and diverse cultures, just like native-born Americans do.
