Is a Senior Care Franchise Recession-Resistant?
Despite the state of the economy, families need help finding the right care for their older loved ones, which is why a senior care franchise is recession-resistant. As such, CarePatrol’s Senior Care Advisors have little to worry about before and during a recession.
Is a Senior Care Franchise Recession-Resistant?
When times are tough, people find ways to reduce their monthly expenses and start cutting back on non-essential purchases (e.g., going out to dinner and buying name-brand products).
However, a senior care franchise is recession-resistant because if an elderly loved one needs assistance, they cannot wait for the economy to improve. Thus, making Senior Care Advisors essential even during an economic downturn.
The services a client receives from a CarePatrol Senior Care Advisor are complimentary. The advisor is paid by the eldercare providers that CarePatrol partners with.
The Need for Elder Care Will Continue
Between 1900 and 1960, life expectancy increased from 58 to 80 years for women and from 51 to 74 years for men. Today, technological advancements and scientific discoveries are helping Americans live even longer.
This increase in our lifespans means the number of seniors who reach the age of 85 and older will rise, and these are the Americans who frequently need assistance with their basic personal care.
Furthermore, the senior population in America is expected to grow substantially. According to the United Health Foundation, by 2040, 22% of the population will be 65 years and above, translating to about one in five Americans.
This considerable change in demographics is due to the aging Baby Boomer generation. With these anticipated changes, a CarePatrol senior care franchise presents a way for people to build a lucrative, recession-resistant business.
Since America’s aging population will continue to rise, CarePatrol franchisees can expect a steady stream of potential clients. This makes our senior care franchise opportunity an attractive investment.
What Does a Senior Care Advisor Do?
As a Senior Care Advisor, you’ll help families find the appropriate assisted living community, nursing home, or other type of senior care option for their loved ones.
CarePatrol’s Senior Care Advisors use our proprietary software to compare the various healthcare facilities we partner with. After reviewing the local senior care options, advisors recommend facilities that will provide their client’s loved ones with the specialized care they need.
Advisors also accompany family members as they tour these facilities. The advisor’s knowledge about local senior care facilities is essential for these family members because it helps assure them that their loved one will be residing where they will be well cared for.
Why Are Senior Care Advisors in Demand?
Each year, more than 8 million seniors in the U.S. receive care from an adult day service, home health agency, assisted living community, nursing home, and hospice.
Many families don’t have time to explore their area’s eldercare agencies, nursing homes, and assisted living communities. They may also have difficulty choosing the right type of care for their loved ones. When these circumstances arise, they can contact a Senior Care Advisor to help them make that choice.
