Brand overview
Preferred Care at Home has been helping seniors age in place with dignity and grace since 1984. Founded by a husband-and-wife team and now led by third-generation family leadership, the brand has spent four decades building a senior care franchise rooted in compassion, reliability, and trust.
What sets Preferred Care at Home apart is its commitment to independence. The company has intentionally stayed privately held rather than chasing private-equity-driven growth, prioritizing the long-term health of its franchise system over rapid expansion. Owners get personalized, one-on-one support from a team that treats every franchisee like family.
