SHC's turn-key home care agency startup and support package gives individuals the skills, materials, and knowledge necessary to launch and successfully run their own non-medical home care agency without the high cost and restrictions of purchasing a franchise. Home care agencies provide non-medical home care services to seniors needing assistance with everyday tasks and obligations following surgery or due to diseases associated with aging.

The primary services home care agency's provide one on one in a client's home include: companionship, meal preparation, medication reminders, light housework, incidental transportation, errands, shopping and much more.

What Is Homecare?

Caregivers and Aides play a crucial role in improving the quality of life for those who are not chronically ill, yet require some type of supervision and assistance. The 2000 Census reports that the current year value of companion services is estimated at $6.4 billion and is expected to increase up past $8 billion as the Baby Boomer generation continues to age. Here are some compelling statistics:

• Seniors prefer to stay in the comfort of their own home; it is called "Aging in Place".
• In 2010 the U.S. population of those aged 65 or older is 35 million strong. By 2030 that number will be 70 million.
• A vast majority of adult children live several hundred miles away from their parents, which makes providing assistance extremely difficult.
• January 5, 2010 - The US Bureau of Labor named the Senior Care Industry as having three out of the top ten job growth markets through to 2020.
• Entrepreneur Magazine boasted that "Senior care was the hottest franchise idea for the year 2004". They also explained that "Senior opportunity is only in its first inning, and dramatic explosive growth is still to come in the decade ahead.

Why Choose StartupHomecare?

Here's what makes StartupHomeCare stand out from the rest: Choice, Freedom, protection, Opportunity, Experience.

If you are seriously considering starting your own non-medical companion homecare business - via the purchase of a successful business model - you will undoubtedly do your homework and shop around for the one that gives you the greatest opportunity to succeed. Why wouldn't you? For most people, the decision to make a career change - or for that matter, a life change - is one filled with conflicting emotions. On the one hand, there is elation at the thought of doing something you love, being your own boss, helping others, and benefiting financially from your success. On the other hand, there is apprehension about undertaking something new and facing unforeseeable hurdles. Your choice of which business opportunity to purchase will be the most important one you make and your success and future happiness will be directly linked to it. That's why StartupHomecare is committed to providing you with the tools, the training and the insight that will give you the greatest chance to succeed.

While most of the options you are researching, such as franchises, will enable you to obtain some degree of success, we believe that our unparalleled experience and insight into the field of home care, combined with our personalized and flexible approach, make us the best option for you.

The expression "one size fits all" may apply in some areas of the business world, but not in the field of home care. Other business opportunities currently being offered, like franchises, make you run your business their way. Even if it means teaching you something that is not in the best interests of you or your clients. But why would you purchase a rigid business model that can't adapt to change?

Choice

At StartupHomecare, we will give you the tools and the training so you can offer your customers the service that fits their needs - not the needs of the corporate office. We teach you all the different business models, so you can choose the appropriate one to meet the specific needs of your clients.

That's choice.

Freedom

We understand that many people want to be free to run their business on their own, on their terms, without any long-term commitment - such as franchise ownership. That's why StartupHomecare is dedicated to providing the best level of training and support without a long-term or short-term commitment from you.

That's freedom.

Protection

All franchises say they will protect your territory. But what kind of protection are you really getting? Are you aware that you won't be able to market your services outside of your territory? That calls from potential clients living outside of your territory must be referred to competing franchisees? If you're like most people, you don't like to give away business. So why should you have to limit your potential customer base? Territory protection doesn't have to mean limiting opportunity and growth. At StartupHomecare, we encourage business owners to think big and to be rewarded for their efforts. Using StartupHomecare to build your agency will allow you to create whatever size territory you want and expand it whenever you so desire at no extra cost.

That's protection.

Opportunity

The idiom "you get out of it what you put into it" is particularly applicable to running your own business. Some business owners will be content to carve out a comfortable niche that suits their schedule and their lifestyle, while others will burn the midnight oil and reach for the stars. StartupHomecare helps you build your business in a way that fits your lifestyle. Perhaps you want to retain your full-time job and just work part-time in Homecare until your agency is making enough profit to quit your full-time employment? Perhaps you want to work 12 hr days 7 days a week? Franchises impose quotas or glass ceilings which restrict your growth and then penalize you for growing your revenue base with their ever increasing royalty fees. StartupHomecare allows you the privilege of determining how hard you work and in turn allows you to put ALL the associated profits in your own pocket.

That's opportunity.

Experience

Many new homecare agencies go in and out of business in under a year because they are not built on the right foundation and do not know the tried and tested secrets of making it in today's competitive home care environment. Our agency startup program is designed to help get you through your critical first year and achieve maximum growth. Our founders have the hands-on homecare industry experience and knowledge of starting and running a successful homecare agency. We know what works and what doesn't.

That's experience.
