If you are saying care workers are underpaid, then I agree. Not so much “immigrants undercutting” as “doing the jobs you wouldn’t dream of doing unless the wage was a whole lot higher” and you aren’t going to get that wage higher under the current funding model are you, come on.
So idk, my take is either you change the funding model (ummm, raise taxes, I mean raise taxes), or you accept lower standards of care, or you accept immigration propping up a sector most people would not wish to work in in a million years. Your choice, really.
