Detaching yourself doesn't cause you to no longer care. For example Buddha detached himself from everything because he realized unsatisfactoriness and impermanence. However, he decided to teach and help others because he still cared. He realized he shouldn't attach to them because of impermanence but he also realized that they were suffering and needed help.
