Forget fast food restaurants and clothing stores, home healthcare is the newest “it†industry for franchise ownership, according to a report released today by
Franchise Business Review.
The report—Senior Care and Home Healthcare Franchises—looks at the fast-growing, multi-billion dollar senior care industry to assess the franchise investment opportunity. The services provided by franchises in this segment focus primarily around non-medical, in-home care for seniors, but some companies also offer skilled medical care, medical staffing for hospitals and other healthcare agencies, and home healthcare services to non-seniors.
To compile the report, researchers at Franchise Business Review looked at more than 35 senior care/home health franchise companies, including the 25 biggest franchisors in the U.S.
