Buy an At Your Side Home Care Franchise

At Your Side Home Care is the brand name used in the Houston and wider Texas market for ComForCare’s in-home senior care franchise system. Founded in 1996 and now in its 30th year, it provides non-medical home care that helps older adults and people with disabilities stay safe and independent in their own homes.

Services cover personal care, companionship, medication reminders, meal preparation, light housekeeping, transportation, fall prevention and 24-hour or live-in support, alongside specialized care for dementia, Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s. Proprietary programs such as DementiaWise and Gaitway fall prevention give franchisees structured, branded service lines that help local agencies stand out.

The brand is part of the ComForCare network and its parent, Best Life Brands, a family of senior-focused franchise companies with more than 250 ComForCare and At Your Side locations across the US and Canada. Each office is independently owned and operated, combining a recognized national system with locally delivered, relationship-driven care.

Why buy an At Your Side Home Care Franchise?

Buying an At Your Side Home Care franchise means entering senior care through an established system with more than 30 years of operating history and a recognized place in the ComForCare and Best Life Brands family. The non-medical home care category is demographically driven and has proved resilient across economic cycles, and the brand pairs that demand with proprietary programs like DementiaWise and a CaregiverFirst approach built around the industry’s central challenge of hiring and keeping caregivers.

The model is largely home-based and territory-protected, with proprietary scheduling and data-reporting systems that let owners manage a multi-caregiver operation from a single dashboard. Many franchisees come from business or management backgrounds rather than healthcare, drawn by recurring service contracts and the scope to grow toward multiple territories.

At Your Side Home Care – Additional  Information

  1. Training & Support

    New owners complete ComForCare's multi-stage training, combining self-study with hands-on workshops at corporate headquarters. For resale buyers, the most relevant support is ongoing: a dedicated business consultant, at least two field visits in the first year, continuing-education programs, and proprietary scheduling and data-reporting systems, plus branded programs such as DementiaWise and the CaregiverFirst recruitment and retention strategy. Buyers of an existing At Your Side agency should confirm what transfer training and system access pass to incoming owners and whether current staff hold DementiaWise certification.

  2. Ideal Owner

    The model suits leaders and operators rather than clinicians, and healthcare experience is not required. ComForCare looks for owners comfortable with P&L management, building and retaining a caregiver team, and driving local sales and community referral relationships. Strong people skills matter, since success depends on recruiting reliable caregivers and earning the trust of families, hospitals and discharge planners. It fits hands-on, community-minded operators who want to scale a service business, potentially across multiple territories, while holding high standards of care.

  3. Recognition & Awards

    ComForCare and At Your Side have ranked multiple times in Entrepreneur's Franchise 500 and earned Franchise Business Review's Game Changers recognition in 2025. The system holds Franchise Dictionary Magazine's Fran-tastic 500 listing and belongs to the International Franchise Association, VetFran and the Canadian Franchise Association, with parent Best Life Brands surpassing 500 locations across the US and Canada. Individual agencies have also earned Best of Home Care honors. For resale buyers, brand-level recognition should be weighed alongside the territory's local reviews and referral reputation.

  4. Industry / Market

    Demand for non-medical home care in the US is driven by demographics rather than economic cycles: roughly 10,000 Americans turn 65 every day, and AARP reports about 80% of older adults prefer to age in place. The US home care market is valued in the hundreds of billions and is projected to keep growing through the decade as the over-75 population expands. The category is considered recession-resilient, and demand is intensely local, so a unit's strength rests on its territory's demographics, referral networks and caregiver availability.
