About
Franchisees operate home healthcare agencies providing non-medical personal care services (assistance with ADLs, companionship, housekeeping) to elderly and disabled clients. Day-to-day operations include recruiting/managing caregivers, scheduling visits, billing insurance and private pay clients, ensuring compliance with state licensing, and managing client relationships. Revenue depends heavily on achieving high client acquisition and maintaining caregiver retention in a competitive, labor-intensive market.
