Guardian Angel Carers offers entrepreneurs, care professionals and business people the opportunity to invest in exclusive territories across the UK with a home care franchise model that blends the autonomy of direct business ownership with the backing and expertise of an established home care brand.

While home care services are in huge demand, and many people would like to explore the potential to own and manage their own businesses and deliver much-valued support to families and people within their local communities, many need help figuring out how to get started.

The Guardian Angel Carers franchise team runs through some essential steps and expert tips to give you a great idea about the process and how building on the template of a franchise platform is the ideal way to launch a business with the potential to grow.

Different Types of Home Care Business Models

Guardian Angel Carers award-winning group is based on a franchise system. In short, each business owner applies for an available territory and owns their business, ensuring they can make decisions that make sense for the people and communities they serve.

However, the primary difference from launching a home care business alone is that there is a wealth of support, guidance and assistance from day one, making everything from regulatory registration to recruitment more streamlined and efficient.

Franchise owners enjoy lower initial upfront investment costs, do not need to spend years developing care programs, marketing materials and branding, and can rely on a dedicated team of franchise specialists to work with them as their business takes shape.

Independent home care business owners can find that the initial capital required to get a brand off the ground is significantly higher. Most home care agencies that follow this route have pre-existing higher-level or executive experience working within the home care sector or are purchasing an already-established business from the previous owner.

The choice is ultimately down to your expectations and aspirations and whether you have the contacts, knowledge and sector-specific experience to go it alone – Guardian Angel Carers is always happy to have a chat to run through this decision-making process in greater detail.

What Skills Do You Need to Apply as a Home Care Franchisee?

Guardian Angel Carers is built on a foundation of values-based care. Although qualifications and certifications are essential, not least to guarantee quality care, client satisfaction and regulatory compliance, the ethos and focus of your business will also be hugely influential in its success.

The franchise team assesses prospective applicants based on a wide variety of criteria, such as their commitment to compassionate, respectful care services. Rather than ‘selling’ a franchise, Guardian Angel Carers accept applicants whose objectives resonate with their own and who will uphold the standards their group is known for.

Some franchise owners opt to invest via a partnership, which could, for example, comprise one owner with a strong background in business management and one with experience as a care coordinator or care provider.

As a quick summary, your home care branch will need:

  • A Registered Manager, normally with a Level 5 Diploma in Leadership for Health and Social Care. Previous qualifications, such as the NVQ Level 4 in Leadership and Management for Care Services and the Registered Managers Award, are no longer available but remain acceptable by the relevant regulator when combined with other professional training.
  • Care Certification training for all care professionals – this is included as funded training in Guardian Angel Carer recruitment packages, ensuring that those new to the home care profession can achieve the knowledge they need.
  • A Responsible Individual who acts in a leadership capacity, although this manager doesn’t necessarily provide in-person care.

Note that your Registered Manager does not need to be one of the business owners, although the Registered Manager and the Responsible Individual can be the same person. You can recruit a qualified team member to take over these responsibilities or register to complete an appropriate qualification programme.

Creating a Successful Home Care Business

One of the compelling advantages of a franchise is that much of the groundwork, such as creating a viable business model (a key aspect of financing), is done for you. From there, the process may vary a little depending on the types of care services you want to offer and where there is the greatest demand in your area, but it will involve working closely with the Guardian Angel Carers onboarding team.

During the first year, you will progress through a series of steps:

  • Establishing your business and setting up the infrastructure, such as CQC registration or registration with The Care Inspectorates in Wales or Scotland.
  • Applying for funding support as necessary and putting together promotional materials and marketing assets to start publicising your services.
  • Finding an office premise to work from, and beginning recruitment, looking for CareAngels and supporting colleagues with the requisite knowledge and experience.

Having a strong brand behind you is considerably more attractive to banks and investors and can make finding seed financing far easier, particularly when supplemented by expert training and guidance to reinforce your business skills and implement strategic planning for your new home care branch.

Next Steps in Establishing Your Own Local Home Care Franchise

If you are keen to get started and discover more about whether a home care franchise is the right business model for you, the company recommends working through these tasks:

  • Reading more about the Guardian Angel Carers business model, franchise offering and approach to family-feel care.
  • Browsing the available territories currently on offer from Guardian Angel Carers.
  • Booking a call with to discuss the next steps and explore whether the Guardian Angel Carers brand is a great fit for your aspirations.

The franchise team will evaluate whether there is sufficient demand in your local region for high-quality home care, arrange a good time for an informal chat or review the available territories to see whether these align with your current base or where you would like your new business to be.
