Why Choose a Home Instead Senior Care Franchise?

No segment of the population will have as great an impact on society as those 65 years of age and older. It has far-reaching implications for our culture, while creating exciting business opportunities for those entrepreneurs who act on these demographic trends. Consider these facts:

• In 2000, there were 600 million people in the world aged 60 and over; there will be 1.2 billion by 2025 and 2 billion by 2050.
• Families providing elder care to other family members have more than doubled since 1987 especially in Japan, Europe and North America and will grow even faster on a global level in the years ahead.
• With one-third of those North Americans who care for aging parents or relatives spending 20 hours or more per week doing so (20 percent spend 40 hours or more), there is no end in sight in the demand for elderly care services.
• Lost productivity, absenteeism, interruptions and replacing employees due to senior care cost businesses billions of dollars  annually.
• The vast majority of the elderly throughout the world prefer to age at home rather than move to a care facility thus creating a self-perpetuating demand for senior care services.
• Over 40% of people over 80 years old will develop some form of dementia.

While these figures carry great significance, few organizations -particularly in franchising - have capitalized on these rapidly-growing opportunities. We've recognized the potential in providing senior care services, and we're looking for Master Franchisees who share the Home Instead Senior Care vision.

Worldwide, we have Master Franchisees in ten different countries with more than 800 independently owned and operated franchises employing 50,000 CAREGivers delivering 40,000 hours of service annually.

The Home Instead Senior Care model in your Country can fill this service gap in a way that allows seniors to stay at home, where they remain happier and healthier. Take the first step toward owning a solid business that can make a difference in people's lives - and join entrepreneurs worldwide who are fulfilling their professional dreams - by becoming a Home Instead Senior Care Master Franchisee.

Home Instead Senior Care Master Franchisees provide an affordable care solution for seniors who prefer to remain at home. Talk with family and friends who care for older loved ones - especially those in the global "sandwich generation" caring for children and senior family members - and they'll tell you they find it difficult, if not impossible, to find a trusted source of home care for their parents and relatives. This will confirm for you the need in your country for Home Instead Senior Care's services and help you understand the tremendous business opportunities for those who become Master Franchisees.
