Growing Global Demand
With the growing number of seniors worldwide, many government and private healthcare programs are overwhelmed, understaffed and under-funded. As a result, senior services are struggling to meet the basic daily needs of seniors. In an effort to take the burden off of hospitals and nursing homes, governments are beginning to focus more on private care programs that help seniors to remain in their own homes.

According to Entrepreneur Magazine, senior care is one of the leading growth sectors in global franchising. In most countries worldwide, the number of people over 65 years of age will rise significantly over the next 25 years. In many countries, the population of elderly people will double or triple between the years 2000 and 2030.

The overwhelming majority of seniors would prefer to stay in their own home, and an increasing number of seniors live alone. In many societies, women have been the traditional caregivers for elderly family members, but this is changing with the increasing number of working women. Finally, many families do not live near their aging parents, and the difficulties associated with long-distance caregiving will continue to drive the need for senior care services.

Training / Support

Initial training is held at the Comfort Keepers' headquarters in Dayton, Ohio over a five day period. Additional on-going training offered on continual basis in classroom, field and online settings.

Qualification requirements
