Graham, you should allow yourself to charge for performing at senior homes. These places all have $ budgeted for entertainment.
First, find out what the's going rate in your area. Best way to do that is by visiting a few homes and pick up a copy of their activities calander. Then you can check out the competition

and one way or another learn what they charge. I've found the best way is to introduce yourself and 'shop talk', then play it by ear.
Good luck and keep us posted on your progress.
