Own a business that helps seniors get the care they need and delivers peace of mind to their families, while establishing yourself as your community’s go-to expert for home care solutions.

CarePatrol is America's #1 senior living placement franchise.

Join the brand that launched the entire industry.

The reason we’re one of the industry leaders is that our founding in 1993 created a lucrative and untapped market segment: the home placement industry.

CarePatrol has grown to over 200 locations in more than 44 states, making us not only the largest home placement franchise in the nation but also the brand that Americans trust.

More importantly, our franchisees have helped thousands of families and are rewarded both financially and personally, as the impact our franchisees have on their communities cannot be measured.

Becky Bongiovanni, CarePatrol brand president

Now is the best time to invest in a CarePatrol franchise. It’s no secret that millions of Americans are rapidly becoming senior citizens on an annual basis, which has created an enormous need for assisted-living facilities. More than eight million people require care from assisted-living facilities today, and that number is expected to reach 27 million by 2050. If you’re looking to get into the senior care space and you want to make a difference, I think the most streamlined path so you don’t have to make a lot of mistakes is going with a franchise system. Rather than trying to open on your own [business], franchising is a great way to enter the space because you have a system that has proven methods and strategies. We have aligned goals to make sure that our franchisees are well supported. What I love about franchising, whether it's our brand or another brand out there, is that you’re in business for yourself but not by yourself.

Why Choose CarePatrol?

The iconic senior care franchise is a best-bet investment.

Chuck Bongiovanni, Founder and Executive Vice President of National Strategic Partnerships of CarePatrol

We hear countless stories of how our franchisees are impacting the lives of families across the nation on a regular basis. They live and breathe this work, and we’re enormously proud that we can provide a profitable business model that truly makes a real, lasting difference in the lives of so many.

Here is how CarePatrol stands out:

BUSINESS WITH A PURPOSE

We believe that helping families is a way of giving back to the community and is a “gift of new life” for our seniors. If you want to touch the hearts of your clients, owning a CarePatrol senior placement franchise might just be the choice for you.

Ron Culyer

I get to do something every day that I can feel good about. The families are probably going through one of the top three most stressful situations you ever have to deal with in life. The part I love is when you see it in their eyes that you found them a good fit and that they do have a safe option that they didn't know about before. I love it, I've been doing it for 10 years and I’m going to keep doing it.

LOW INVESTMENT

CarePatrol is one of the most affordable investment opportunities in the senior care industry. For less than $100,000, you can make a lasting difference in your community and have the potential to make a great living for yourself.

CULTURE

CarePatrol started as a result of seeing the problems that occur when families are ill-equipped or have no time to find the safest senior living options on their own.

TRAINING & SUPPORT

CarePatrol has one of the most intensive training platforms in the industry. We will help you through every step of the process of becoming your community’s most trusted senior care advisor.

INDUSTRY LEADER

CarePatrol is not only the leader in Assisted-Living Placement, but we are also well positioned to be that leader for many years to come.

Ready to bring CarePatrol to your community?

CarePatrol is your chance to leave the “corporate world” behind for a business that makes a meaningful impact on families and seniors.

CarePatrol Named a Top Recession-Proof Business for 2023 by Franchise Business Review

April 13, 2023

“It is highly gratifying to be recognized as a top recession-proof business and to know that franchisee satisfaction is high,” said Becky Bongiovanni, co-founder and brand president of CarePatrol. “Regardless of the economy, franchising in general and especially in the senior care space is very well-positioned for growth. Our team is committed to making sure our existing franchisees are successful by providing them with the resources they need to serve their communities.”

Franchise Business Review (FBR) provides the only rankings of franchises based solely on actual franchisee satisfaction and performance. FBR publishes its rankings of top franchises in its annual Guide to Today’s Top Franchises, as well as in quarterly reports throughout the year that rank the top franchises in specific sectors.

More than 36,000 franchisees representing over 365 franchise brands participated in Franchise Business Review’s franchisee satisfaction survey. From the research, CarePatrol was one of just 100 franchise brands to be identified as a Top Recession-Proof Franchise award winner and be featured on the list of the best recession-proof franchises.

CarePatrol’s franchisees were surveyed on 33 benchmark questions about their experience and satisfaction regarding critical areas of their franchise systems, including training & support, operations, franchisor/franchisee relations, culture, and financial opportunity.

“While no business is 100% recession-proof, these franchise businesses have demonstrated that they are highly recession-resistant based on historical performance,” said Eric Stites, CEO of Franchise Business Review. “For people seeking to be their own boss, the Top 100 Recession-Proof businesses we identified this year not only have outstanding satisfaction among their owners—one of the most important factors to consider before investing in any franchise opportunity—but they have performed well in good times and bad and we feel they hold a strong advantage to outperform their competitors in the years ahead.”

CarePatrol’s survey data showed:

88% of franchisees “strongly agree” or “agree” that senior management encourages a strong team culture;
94% of franchisees enjoy operating their business;
97% of franchisees would recommend the franchise to others.

CarePatrol Testimonials

I was a restaurant owner with elderly parents and five children, and I was getting squeezed for time. My background was in microbiology, so going into CarePatrol is giving me an opportunity to learn about the science of aging. I love everything about it: there’s much less stress, I have more time for the family, and it’s extremely personally and financially rewarding.

Mike Awadalla (Walton Creek, CA)

The CarePatrol business model is simple, but it’s not simple to do. When the founders started the business, the impetus was to help families through a difficult time. Having the compassion to help people is the easiest part. What we do well is listen to the families to find out what they need and then deliver a solution. The model is very straightforward and is extremely effective. CarePatrol is a very special brand because we are on the ground in the communities. We are the subject-matter experts in our local communities, which gives us a presence and the ability to win trust in our markets.

Sharon Meekin (Minneapolis, MN)

I knew that I wanted to do something that made a difference, and I was drawn to the CarePatrol business model because it’s so straightforward. The business has been around for over 20 years, and it’s proven. The culture of CarePatrol is very family-oriented. The founders work in the business, and they ensure that we get the training that we need. They are extremely accessible. I have their cell phone numbers, and they are there whenever I need them. You couldn’t feel more supported.

Julie Derry (San Diego, CA)

I worked in senior health care for a number of years, and the CarePatrol name was always extremely well respected. After owning my own business, joining CarePatrol gives me a lot of advantages in terms of long-term viability. The support that I get from the brand helps me more than anything else; they have the marketing support, the brand recognition and the systems and processes that make my business more effective.

Anthony Black (Mesa, AZ)

LOVE this franchise and what we do. Chuck is very innovative and forward thinking.

Wendy Kirby (Florida)

None of my competitors have the in-house staff support, training or difference that we have with our customers.

Cristie Burr (California)

I believe that training and support is very good and materials are of high quality. I believe that overall support is excellent.

Bruce Ritter (Long Island, New York)

I am retired military, so I know a bit about core values. Our leadership exhibits core values as the backbone of the company. There are no shortcuts, no dishonesty and no shoddy practices to get ahead. All I have seen are integrity and credibility; and I am honored to be a part of it. Training and support are excellent with great communication and application of the pertinent items needed to succeed. Staff and leadership are always willing to listen to concerns and make valid efforts address these concerns in a timely and professional manner.
