Providing Diverse Options to Meet Rising Home Care Demand
September 28, 2019
Healthcare services fall on a broad spectrum with options ranging from working with a client in a person’s own home to the more skilled care needed in a hospital setting. Homewatch CareGivers’ home care services tend to be less complex, medically speaking, but are more than just task-oriented. We believe that home care should provide meaningful companionship for those whose health conditions or rehabilitation restrictions might limit their social engagement. Specifically, Homewatch CareGivers provides the vital and nurturing care that families with aging parents or homebound seniors depend upon.
Homewatch Caregivers franchise owners are responsible for hiring home care aides and caring professionals who work with clients’ evolving home care needs. Demographic trends point to a growing need for home care services, with nearly 70% of people over 65 projected to need long-term care services in their lifetime. What’s more, by 2030, people over 65 will comprise a significant 20% of the U.S. population. Of special relevance to Homewatch CareGivers franchisees: a whopping 90% of Americans 65 and older would prefer to age in their own homes.
Such trendlines continue to point to a growing need for the kinds of services that Homewatch CareGivers franchisees provide. Whether it’s daily companion care custom-developed for each and every client or more hands-on assistance like dressing and bathing, franchisees and their caregivers develop lasting relationships with the people and communities they serve. By delivering meaningful home-based care rooted in their communities, Homewatch CareGivers forms an essential link in the healthcare spectrum in a market with growing demand.
