Buy a Right at Home Franchise

Right at Home is an in-home care franchise founded in 1995 by Allen Hager, a former hospital administrator, and franchising since 2000. The brand provides companionship, personal care and support services that help seniors and adults with disabilities continue living independently at home.

The business runs as a territory-based care agency. Revenue is recurring, built on ongoing care hours, and the day-to-day work centres on recruiting and retaining caregivers, coordinating schedules and developing referral relationships with hospitals, discharge planners and other community sources. Owners typically work from a modest office rather than a retail unit.

Right at Home operates more than 780 locations across five countries, supported by 100+ staff at its global headquarters in Omaha, Nebraska, where the network has delivered over 363 million hours of care. Now led by President and CEO Margaret Haynes, it is one of the more established names in the senior care category.

Why buy a Right at Home Franchise?

Buying a Right at Home franchise gives an owner an established brand in a care category backed by long-term demographic demand and generally resilient across economic cycles. The recurring nature of care hours can produce a more predictable revenue base than one-off project work, and the office-based model keeps premises overhead modest relative to retail or restaurant formats.

New owners join a system with a defined support structure: a one-on-one Business Performance Coach, the RightStart onboarding process and a network of fellow owners who share operating experience through performance groups. Healthcare experience is not required, which widens the pool of operators able to step in.

Right at Home – Additional  Information

  1. Training & Support

    Support runs from Omaha, Nebraska, where 100+ corporate staff back the network. Onboarding follows the RightStart process, combining virtual and in-person training, including Residence Week at headquarters, and each owner works one-on-one with a dedicated Business Performance Coach. Ongoing help includes coaching calls, site visits, a rollout of a proprietary CRM platform and 14 franchisee performance groups for peer collaboration. Resale buyers should confirm what RightStart onboarding and CRM access the franchisor provides to incoming owners.

  2. Ideal Owner

    The model suits a relationship-driven operator comfortable recruiting, scheduling and retaining caregivers and building referral networks with hospitals, discharge planners and community contacts. Healthcare experience is not required, though a management background helps. Emotional resilience matters, as the work involves vulnerable clients and their families. Owners who are community-minded, process-oriented and steady under staffing pressure tend to fit the staffing-led nature of an in-home care agency.

  3. Recognition & Awards

    Right at Home is ranked in Entrepreneur's Franchise 500 (most recently #218 in 2025, up 100 places from 2024). Franchise Business Review named it a Top Franchise in 2025 and a Top 200 Franchise in 2026, with further FBR recognition for franchisee satisfaction, culture and profitability, and it appears on the Franchise Times Top 400. For resale buyers, brand-level recognition should be weighed alongside the specific territory's local reputation, online reviews and referral strength.

  4. Industry / Market

    Demand for in-home senior care is supported by clear demographic trends: the US population aged 65 and older is projected to reach nearly 84 million by 2050. Most older adults prefer to age in their own homes rather than move into facilities, and adult children increasingly live far from ageing parents, widening the need for paid care. As an essential service, the category tends to hold up across economic cycles, which matters to buyers assessing the stability of an existing unit's revenue.
