Discover how Caring Senior Service® has been changing lives for over 20 years.

Grow with Us. Care With Us. Change Lives with Us®.

Thank you for your interest in the Caring Senior Ser-vice franchise opportunity. Like you, I began to look at homecare because I saw a need that wasn’t be-ing fully addressed. Prior to 1991, when I developed the concept behind Caring Senior Service, I worked at a home health company and discovered a gap in the care available to seniors. I noticed how the patients really enjoyed the time they got to spend with the caregivers. I knew there were plenty of se-niors in the community who just needed help with basic things like meal preparation, errands and bathing in order for them to remain safe at home. Two decades later, and across multiple states, Car-ing Senior Service has become a respected leader in the non-medical homecare industry. As active

members of numerous industry specific organiza-tions and the International Franchise Association we continue to stay on the leading edge of this rapidly growing and successful industry. Our core values of Excellence, Responsibility, Team-work and Rewarding Families allows us to continue our success at both the national and local level and gives individuals the opportunity to develop a lucrative business in the non-medical homecare in-dustry while making positive changes in the lives of seniors and their families. I hope you will take this opportunity to discover how you can Grow With Us. Care With Us. Change Lives With US®.

With over 20 years of senior homecare experience, we offer a proven business model. Our comprehensive start up, training and ongoing support will set your business on the right track. Caring Senior Service is the only senior care franchise that of-fers a true business solution so you can hit the ground running after our complete training program. We are your business re-source center so you can focus on what is really important…growing your business.

The driving force of the homecare industry is the desire among aged individuals to re-main independent and at home.

Several studies, including one conducted by AARP, have found that the overwhelm-ing majority of seniors – 89 percent – want to age in their own homes for as long as possible (Source: AARP survey).

According to the US Census Bureau, more than 8,000 people turn 65 each day. By the end of this year the senior population in America will have reached almost 49 million. By 2025, it will have grown to near-ly 72 million (Source: The Department of Health and Human Services and the State Department).

What is the trend of these driving factors?

~ Aging population

~ Changing Healthcare practices

~ Social Mobility

-When compared to the costs associated with a retirement community, private pay homecare can be a very affordable option for many seniors. The average annual cost of one nursing home resident is $81,030. The average annual cost of one assisted living facility resident is $42,600.

-Seniors who want to remain in their homes can often do so cost effectively with a few hours of care each week. For example, 20 hours of companionship homecare a week costs approximately $1,732 a month or an average annual cost of $20,784 (Source: MetLife Market Survey of Nursing Home & Assisted Living Costs). Thus allowing them to remain independent and home.

Caring has a long history of leadership in the homecare industry. We spent over 10 years developing our model prior to becoming a franchisor, and our franchise owners succeed in large part due to our support and development.

“There was no other franchise that compared to Caring’s sys-tematic approach for both op-erations and marketing in build-ing a business and then being able to provide the care that we wanted to do.“

Jane and Richard DaumePhoenix/Scottsdale, AZ

“As a franchise owner I have the freedom that comes with own-ership and I also have the cor-porate support that is so vital for success. There is no need for me to ‘reinvent the wheel’, the sys-tem and processes are in place and I am following those pro-cesses and I am seeing success in the way of referral calls, new clients and happy caregivers.”
