About Nurse Next Door
Nurse Next Door builds a proven business with heart. Named one of America's most promising franchise opportunities by CNBC, Nurse Next Door offers an opportunity to cash in on a burgeoning aging population. Offering both medical and non-medical private duty home care through a uniquely centralized platform, Nurse Next Door is poised to continue building market share quickly.
Why the Home Care industry should be considered:
With 10,000 people turning 65 every day, the private-duty home care market is poised for dramatic growth for decades to come.
Private-duty home care offers a recession resilient business opportunity in uncertain economic times.
Low capital requirements and home based.
WHY Nurse Next Door?
A 24/7/365 centralized Care Services Center manages all scheduling and logistics for all
franchisees - the most demanding aspect of the senior care industry is that it’s 24/7. This
support allows you not to be tied to your desk or phone. You can concentrate on what’s
important - growing your business!
The Brand - In a space as competitive as private-duty home care, you need a brand that
turns heads. The brand is much more than bold pink, but that alone will help you stand out
from the crowd.
Happier Aging - - Nurse Next Door’s philosophy of care. It’s more than the task, it’s about
delivering a WOW client experience. This allows you to be a premium brand in your local
market - attracting more clients and quality staff as well.
Skilled Care - Nurse Next Door offers all components of care, from companionship right up to
skilled nursing. This allows you to be the one-stop-shop for home care, expanding your reach
of clients in the community. It's also a major asset as you build relationships in your local
hospitals and rehab centres.
Enjoy Protected Territory - Based on ZIP, each Nurse Next Door territory is protected for you
to establish a robust business, while working with neighboring Franchise Partners and learning
from each other.

SUPPORT & TRAINING PROVIDED:
Training and support program details:
Our training is comprehensive and ongoing. It starts with our eight-week Franchise Opener program and continues past launch day with regular calls from your Business Coach and other Franchise Partners.
The Franchise Opener is a comprehensive checklist of tasks we will help you through as we count down to your business launch. Items include: setting up your online marketing, hiring, licensing and so much more. The tasks will be broken down week by week and you will work with our different teams to check things off your list one by one. We want you to hit the ground running come launch day!
Our goal during training week is not to turn our new franchise partners into nurses. Our franchise partners can hire those. Our job is to turn our partners into successful business people. Our 5-day Foundations Training Week consists of intensive virtual video sessions. Our partners will finish the week equipped with the skills, knowledge, and confidence needed to get their home care business off the ground!
