FRANCHISEFOCUS INVESTMENT: FROM £30,000 Angels are real! Visiting Angels: A care franchise – done very differently
values. Today, the home care franchise is one of the largest care franchises in America and proudly supports 800+ franchisees across five countries. Visiting Angels’ approach to business
V
is different to anything you’ve seen or experienced in the franchise care space. The franchise model isn’t based on building a network of hundreds of franchisees, Visiting Angels believe in quality over quantity. The franchise has a different system of values; to be carer- centric and putting caregivers at the heart of the business. For without them, there is no business. Visiting Angels maintain that, by treating carers well, they are empowered to deliver an exceptional service with genuine care and will change the future of social care in the UK. Setting up a care business is a
complex process and Visiting Angels is with you every step of the way, bringing its international size and scale and the expertise of a vast network of franchisees over the years, bringing the very best to you. Lynn James, owner and registered
manager of Visiting Angels in North Surrey talks about her experience with the franchise. “I had heard of Visiting Angels on trips to the USA with my previous employer so was aware of their size, experience, and significant presence in
“I love the people and the suppo they provide”
the home care market. I was aware that VA was a reputable brand that delivered quality care with the bonus of treating the caregivers well. I’ve worked in a franchise before and
could see the benefits of starting your own business with ready-made structure,
isiting Angels was established in the US in 1998 and is a global care giant with community-based
support network and a bit of a safety net. I think owning your own business could be lonely but being part of a network through franchising is a more positive experience and I love the people and the support they provide every day. I had been wondering why I wasn’t running my own company given my passion for quality care and my experience in caring roles and then I heard that VA had come to the UK. I knew that if we didn’t buy the territory we wanted then someone else would and I might always regret not trying.” Visiting Angels provides extensive
training and support to all the franchisees. This includes, recruitment and retention, marketing and networking, legislations, payroll, accounts and many more! Regular, ongoing training for the life of your franchise is a combination of
e-learning, workshops, webinars, group and one-to-one training sessions. This is a comprehensive programme, designed keeping the business owner in mind and to help them bring out the best of their abilities. With the help of Visiting Angels, you will build a team of experienced care staff around you to focus on daily operations and recruit high-quality care workers whilst you focus on generating referrals, driving lead generation and developing your business. l
