An Innovative Concept in the Booming In-Home Senior Care Industry

Numerous surveys, articles, and population studies show there is an increasing number of people who need -- and in fact prefer -- home health care. The Home Health Mates program taps into this rising demand and differs from other companies in the industry by offering franchisees the ability to provide both non-medical and medical care. This opportunity offers franchise owners a sense of purpose and satisfaction, knowing they're providing greatly needed services to families in their communities. You do not need industry experience to join us as a franchise owner. The benefits and advantages of joining the Home Health Mates system are numerous and include:

• a highly rewarding business opportunity
• the experience and support of individuals who have been helping families for over 20 years
• a variety of service offerings, from hourly companionship and full live-in service to medical care and facility staffing
• full training and support for your business operations

The Demand for Home Health Care Services is Exploding
Currently, there are an estimated 38 million people in this country over the age of 65. By 2025, population projections indicate there will be an estimated 62 million seniors over the age of 65. Over 80% of surveyed Americans age 45 and over indicate they would prefer to stay in their own homes rather than move to a relative's house or care facility should the need for care arise. Additionally, every year the need for home care services rises substantially. In a 2006 study prepared by insurance company MetLife, the average rate of a private room in a nursing home was $206 a day, or over $72,000 annually. Home health care may provide a financially viable alternative to nursing or assisted living facilities and provides the aging population with the opportunity to stay in their own homes as they age.
