Why A Senior Home Care & Geriatric Care Management Franchise?

With nearly a quarter of all American adults currently providing some kind of daily assistance to a family member, Happier At Home was established with a goal of enabling seniors to remain living at home and independently. Our Geriatric Care Services assist them and their families in the coordination of the resources that enable them to stay securely home and act as advocates in emergent situations.

The number of people over age 85 is projected to double by the year 2030 and double again by 2050. This aging of society brings with it new challenges for individuals, families, and entire communities. By 2050, according to the U.S. Census, the U.S. 65+ population will double to 89 million. This phenomenon creates an unprecedented business opportunity.

Baby Boomers hold $13 trillion assets or roughly 50 percent of United States’ asset base. The first of these baby boomers turn 65 at a rate of 8,000 people per day. This generation is now driving the market for senior care. Those seniors have an average life expectancy of 19 years after turning age 65, with the majority owning their homes and preferring to stay in them. This industry is expected to provide the second fastest growing occupation in the US. Those occupations that provide primarily caregiving services to seniors is expected to exceed a 50% growth rate to 2016 creating approximately 1.15 million jobs, based upon U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics.

Happier At Home provides in-home senior care services and Senior Care Management that help seniors to continue living in their own home for as long as possible. Happier At Home provides assistance with light housekeeping, setting up for bathing and grooming, meal planning and preparation, monitoring for safety, mental stimulation, companionship, running errands, medication reminders, encouraging home exercises, providing transportation to medical and other appointments, visits with friends and trips to favorite places. Additionally, the families of seniors often live out of town or are not familiar with the senior care arena. These families are always thankful to have Geriatric Care Management services to help them navigate their way through the aging process.

Owning a home care business not only provides great financial opportunity, it also is a source of satisfaction knowing that you are providing the means to help seniors remain in their home and peace of mind for family members knowing that their loved ones are safe at home.
