About Options for Senior America
Founded in 1989, the company assists seniors in maintaining independence through personalized support such as personal care, respite services, and specialized assistance for veterans. The franchise operates as a brick-and-mortar business model where owners manage operations from a local office while caregivers provide services at the client's residence. Franchisees receive comprehensive training and support to manage client scheduling, staffing, and community outreach. This home-care concept focuses on helping clients age in place safely and comfortably.
