Buy an In Home Personal Services Franchise

In Home Personal Services (IHPS) is a non-medical home care franchise that has provided in-home senior care since 2004. Caregivers help older adults and others needing daily support to live independently at home, covering companion care, personal and hygiene care, respite and post-discharge care, overnight and live-in care, and specialty support for clients with Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s or arthritis.

The model is private-pay and built around individualized care plans, with the franchisor positioning on both affordability and customized service. Franchises run from a low-overhead, home-based or small-office footprint that needs no retail storefront, and each owner holds a protected territory. Revenue is largely recurring, driven by ongoing care relationships rather than one-off jobs, and units are staffed with vetted caregivers rather than subcontractors.

IHPS is founder-led by Michael Collura and offers several ownership structures, including single-unit, multi-unit, area developer and master franchise arrangements. Protected territories are available across major US markets, making this a nationally franchised brand in the broader senior home-care sector.

Why buy an In Home Personal Services Franchise?

Senior home care is a recurring-revenue service category that has proved resilient across economic cycles, supported by an aging population and a strong preference among older adults to remain in their own homes. For buyers weighing whether to buy an In Home Personal Services franchise, the appeal is a needs-based service with repeat clients rather than discretionary, one-off demand.

The ownership model keeps overhead low: it is home-based or small-office, needs no retail buildout, and an owner does not need a clinical or healthcare background to run it. Each franchise operates a protected territory, and the brand offers single-unit, multi-unit, area developer and master franchise paths for owners who want to scale. As a VetFran participant, IHPS extends franchise-fee incentives to veterans. Recurring care contracts paired with low fixed costs are central to the model’s economics.

In Home Personal Services – Additional  Information

  1. Training & Support

    IHPS trains incoming owners through a structured XII-phase (12-phase) program, including a 26-day initial training that begins with 4 days of live virtual learning followed by in-person classroom and on-the-job field training at corporate headquarters, covering operations, compliance and care delivery. Ongoing support runs 24/7/365 and spans marketing, caregiver recruitment, territory analysis and revenue coaching. Buyers of an existing IHPS unit should confirm what initial and transfer training the franchisor provides to new ownership and existing staff when the business changes hands.

  2. Ideal Owner

    This is a relationship- and operations-led business suited to owners comfortable recruiting and managing caregivers, building referral relationships with healthcare and community contacts, and overseeing client care quality. No clinical or healthcare background is required; the franchisor's prevailing expectation is a genuine commitment to caring for the elderly. Strong local networking and sales instincts help drive client acquisition, while empathy and dependability matter for retaining clients and caregivers alike. It suits hands-on local operators, including career changers and veterans, seeking a service business with community impact.

  3. Recognition & Awards

    In Home Personal Services was named the #1 Healthcare Franchise to open in 2021 by Insights Success Magazine and was recognized among Franchise Dictionary Magazine's Top 100 Game Changers for 2025. The brand and its leadership were featured across multiple business and franchise publications during 2021, and IHPS has been noted for its mission-driven culture and franchisee satisfaction in non-medical care. It participates in VetFran and belongs to franchise industry groups including the IFA community and IFPG. For resale buyers, recognition should be weighed alongside the specific territory's local reviews, referral sources and reputation.

  4. Industry / Market

    Demand for non-medical home care in the US is driven by a rapidly aging population: the number of Americans aged 65 and older reached about 61 million in 2024, and roughly 10,000 turn 65 every day. The US home-care market is growing at an estimated 7-8% annually as more older adults choose to age in place rather than move to residential facilities. Because the need is essential rather than discretionary, demand tends to hold through economic downturns. For resale buyers, local factors such as referral networks, caregiver supply and competition shape how well a territory captures this demand.
