Home healthcare business startup on a budget…
Do you have what it takes to start, run, and grow an in-home care business?
When I was faced with the reality of caring for my mother when she became ill, while also caring for my elderly grandma, I realized that I needed more education (and help) for my situation. While I loved them both dearly, my love itself wasn’t enough to properly care for them. I decided to gain that education and eventually became a CNA. When my mother, and then grandmother, finally passed away, I continued in this field of providing at-home care.
Caring for a family member at home while they are recovering, terminally ill, or in the final stages of life can be stressful. The burden can be eased when you’re able to bring in qualified help to assist you.
Home healthcare encompasses a large range of skilled nursing and unskilled home care services that can be accomplished in a client’s home after an injury or illness. It can also apply to services that are for an older or disabled person who might require assistance with daily activities such as cooking, bathing, running errands, shopping, and more.
Do you have a caring, compassionate heart? Do you want to start a business where you know you will be assisting people when they need it most? Do you want to be your own boss and run an agency of skilled professionals who you trust to do the hands-on work?
In this book, I will outline the different levels of care that your agency might provide according to the need you see in your community. This could range from simple companion care services with light housekeeping and friendly faces, to more skilled nursing and palliative care. The fact is that you need not be personally professionally skilled to be an agency director. You can have a heart for starting the business, do the back-end work, and hire trained professionals to work for you. I’ll show you how!
This book will discuss all aspects of starting an in-home care services company, with variations on skilled and unskilled service providers. I guide you through starting this business from scratch, step-by-step. Once we have the business established, I will talk you through how to grow and run your operation from marketing, advertising, and dealing with employees.
Be sure to check out the table of contents to see exactly what my book will provide to you in terms of information. I would strongly encourage you to get your hands on any and everything you can read about starting a business like this before you take the leap.
We will discuss topics such as:
What home healthcare meansIf you’re cut out for this line of workWhat different levels of care encompassThe different types of services your new agency might provideWhat a day in the life of an in-home care provider looks like8 steps for building your businessHow to gain clients through advertising and partnershipsHow to craft a solid business planWhat licensing you’ll have to obtainHow to get paidHow to hire staff and manage employees in your day-to-day operations
All this and much much more is contained in this book. I also describe to you some true-to-life, real-world illustrations of what I’m teaching you in action with personal stories from those who have experiences with this field. I hope that reading about the concepts in action will give you a better understanding.

Easy to Follow – Helpful
Home Healthcare Business Startup on a Budget: How to Start, Run and Grow Your Own Home Care, Senior Care and Home Health Care Company by Cindy Grace. This book was easy-to-follow and well-organized. I liked how the chapters were organized, such as ‘Discovering Clients” and “Marketing Plan”. For those who are considering starting up their own healthcare business, this book makes it easier to do. What’s also good about this topic overall, is it’s a growing industry and so an interest in this type of business makes a lot of sense. What else I liked about this book is how there are various scenarios laid out. For example, “Hospice Care Business from Home”. These scenarios describe how a healthcare business can be used in different situations. What else I thought was helpful was “Crafting a Brand Identity”. This section discusses the ways that one could stand out from the crowds. Billing, Payment, Policies, and Procedures are also covered. For those who are seeking a book that clearly explains the steps needed to get from Point A to Point B in the home healthcare business, this one is a good one to pick up, read, and refer back to again and again.

Compassion and care for personal and profitable gain
The reality is that the elderly population in the United States continues to grow every year. This will mean a continually growing field of care for a growing population.Cindy Grace outlines the importance of this care on the personal, practical, profitable, medical, and familial levels.The bottom line comes down to having the heart for it, which she clearly does, as demonstrated in the book with her own personal experiences in caregiving for her family through to creating, sustaining, and maintaining a home health care business. Some important things that are included are governmental guidance, personal consideration, types of care, employees, etc.Overall, a good read for a potential business and a reminder that we all get old and will need help.

Very informative book especially for those of us on a budget
Home health care is the new frontier in the health care industry for the 21st century. I have been seeing this trend growing year after year. With the ever-growing aging population, this home health care sector is one of those lines of business that has truly unlimited potentials. I am glad to see the author took the time to explain the steps one can take and get started in this business even with limited budget. This book is well written, It seems like the author has commanding knowledge about the topic. I wish the book talked a little more about each of the State requirements a little more in-depth, but I guess that part can be found online by a quick search.
