Buy a Briggs Home Care Franchise

Briggs Home Care is a non-medical, in-home senior care franchise that helps older adults and people living with disabilities remain safely in their own homes. Services span companionship, personal care, homemaking, respite for family caregivers, and specialized support for clients living with dementia or Alzheimer’s.

The brand is the franchised arm of Briggs Healthcare, a West Des Moines, Iowa healthcare company that entered home care operations in the mid-2010s and built a base of corporate-owned agencies before launching franchising in 2022. Franchisees work within large, protected territories and focus on private-pay and private long-term-care insurance clients, positioning Briggs toward the premium end of the market.

The model is largely home- or office-based and staffing-led: owners recruit and manage caregivers, build referral relationships with healthcare and community sources, and oversee scheduling, compliance and quality rather than delivering hands-on care. Briggs targets key urban markets across the US, supported by proprietary operating technology and a leadership team drawn from the home care and healthcare industries.

Why buy a Briggs Home Care Franchise?

Buying a Briggs Home Care franchise gives an owner a foothold in a recession-resistant, demographically driven category, backed by the operating experience of an established Iowa healthcare company. Briggs ran its own agencies before it began franchising, so the model owners adopt is one the parent has already operated rather than a concept built purely to sell.

The premium, private-pay positioning is designed to support stronger margins than volume-led, insurance-reimbursed competitors, while large protected territories leave room to grow without internal competition. Owners receive recognized brand credibility, established referral-source relationships, marketing and client-acquisition support, and proprietary technology for billing, compliance and scheduling. Because the business is home- or office-based with no retail buildout, overhead stays low and the model scales across additional caregivers and service lines.

Briggs Home Care – Additional  Information

  1. Training & Support

    Initial training runs about one week (34 hours of classroom instruction) for the incoming owner and one lead staff member. Ongoing support includes refresher training, remote coaching by video, phone and email, plus in-field and virtual visits covering finances, management, client service, compliance and quality control. Owners get marketing and client-acquisition support, established healthcare referral connections, proprietary operating technology for billing, payroll, compliance and scheduling, and conferences. Resale buyers should confirm what transfer training and system access Briggs provides to an incoming owner and existing staff.

  2. Ideal Owner

    Briggs suits a sales- and relationship-driven operator who can build referral networks with hospitals, discharge planners and community sources, recruit and retain caregivers, and manage scheduling, compliance and quality rather than deliver care personally. No medical or healthcare background is required; the brand looks for genuine commitment to senior care paired with business and people-management ability. It fits hands-on local owners comfortable leading a caregiver team and selling a premium, private-pay service in their community.

  3. Recognition & Awards

    Briggs Home Care's corporate agencies have earned Home Care Pulse Best of Home Care recognition, including Provider of Choice, Employer of Choice and Leader in Excellence awards based on third-party client and caregiver satisfaction surveys. The brand also draws credibility from its parent, Briggs Healthcare, an established Iowa healthcare company with decades of industry experience. As a franchise system launched in 2022, its track record is still developing, so resale buyers should weigh brand-level recognition alongside the specific territory's local reviews, referral relationships and community reputation.

  4. Industry / Market

    The US home care providers industry is worth roughly $173.6 billion and has grown at about 4.6% a year over the past five years (IBISWorld), driven by an over-65 population expanding faster than the overall US population and a strong preference among seniors for aging in place rather than moving to assisted living or skilled nursing. Non-medical, private-pay care tends to hold up across economic cycles because the underlying need is non-discretionary. For resale buyers, local demand depends on area demographics, referral-source strength and caregiver availability.
