Who are Kare Plus?
Established in 1989, Kare Plus began providing specialist and non-specialist nursing staff to public and private hospitals in the UK; uniquely placed to take advantage of the changing healthcare landscape.
Kare Plus’ founders were integral members of Healthcare Brands International, starting life in the Kare Plus network as franchise owners in 2008; so they fully understood the wants and needs of all their customers, staff, clients and franchise owners. In 2010, they purchased the model in its entirety and rebranded with a new, clear vision and goal; to change the face of the healthcare market.
The company soon developed to supply a variety of healthcare staff and services and began to grow into a franchise network covering England and Wales. The company’s Head Office is now based in Telford, Shropshire and supports an established network of over 80 franchises and company owned branches in the UK.
Our History
Why Franchise with Us?
UNLIKE MANY OTHER HEALTHCARE FRANCHISES, KARE PLUS OFFERS MORE THAN JUST SENIOR CARE; PROVIDING A WIDE ARRAY OF TEMPORARY AND PERMANENT STAFFING SOLUTIONS AND CARE SERVICES, INCLUDING SPECIALIST AND NON-SPECIALIST NURSING, MEDICAL STAFF SUPPLY AND CRITICAL CARE.
All of which is in addition to our high quality supported living, homecare and liveÂ-in care services – thus providing true multiple sources of revenue.
The ever changing healthcare market, twinned with Kare Plus’ multiple service offerings provides many opportunities for the Kare Plus Master Franchisor.
Kare Plus provides an established business model designed to provide customers with a one-stop-solution and to solve the problems posed in caring for the rapidly ageing global population.
Population Ageing is poised to become one of the most significant social transformations of the twenty-first century, with implications for nearly all sectors of society, especially in healthcare provision.
Thanks to advances in medicine helping more people to live longer lives, virtually every country in the world is experiencing growth in the number and proportion of older persons in their population.
Age related diseases which require a varying degree of care and support away from hospital environments, such as dementia, are also a major factor in the rising need for private and efficient healthcare service offerings.
And finally, a Master Franchisor will have access to all the tried and tested tools, market intelligence and expertise in the area of marketing, sales, growth and public relations to build your own successful and profitable nationwide business.
