Can I get paid directly for taking care of my Mom rather than going through a agency such as ABIL?

In Arizona. My mother needs supervision during all waking hours as well as dressing, toilet, bathing, getting in and out of bed, getting into her wheelchair, food preparation, administering meds (including insulin) as well as doctor appointments.
