CarePatrol Cost Comparisons

About CarePatrol

There are other choices in the Senior Care Franchise Industry other than in-home caregiving services. CarePatrol helps families find assisted living and other senior housing options for seniors. We refer our clients to top in home care providers or assisted living communities and receive a handsome commission each time our client chooses one of our providers’ services. Finish the day knowing you made a difference in someone’s life and a potential incredible income at the same time.

Founded in 1995 by a social worker after observing the personal trauma experienced by a family whose loved one had been placed in the wrong type of facility, CarePatrol became the pioneer organization of the now thriving senior placement industry. Today, under the careful direction of that same founder, we're helping families make safe choices all over America and are developing our brand with a steady and calculated growth to ensure a superior platform for the support of our franchisees nationwide.

CarePatrol assists seniors and their families with the difficult task of identifying the most appropriate residential facility or in-home care service in their area. Each of our offices are contracted with dozens of providers in their region and are paid handsomely every time a client is placed with one of them. The service is completely free to clients as our franchisees are paid directly by the providers. It's a business in which each party benefits and feels tremendous satisfaction every time the service is performed.

The senior placement business model has significant advantages over the homecare operations that have become so popular over the past decade. In addition to a much lower initial investment, without the ongoing expense, headache, and liability of employing caretakers, the total overhead and ease of operation is almost incomparable. Our one-of-a-kind marketing program distributes referrals provided by both headquarters and other franchisees for a 30% fee to the source on paid accounts.

Other senior placement brands have arisen in the recent past, but only one has remained true to its founding for 18 years with an impeccable track record of operations and an enormous collection of successful entrepreneurs eager to tell their story. Our recent annual convention was attended by 100% of our franchisees in a display of satisfaction and participation that's not only unmatched in our industry, but almost unheard of anywhere in American franchising.

Wise research and foresight has led you to explore senior services - one of the fastest growing markets of the future. With that, we now invite you to learn about the lucrative niche of "senior placement" ... from CarePatrol - America's original senior placement service.
