We help keep parents and grandparents out of nursing facilities and in the comfort and familiarity of their own homes, as well as assisting parents with their childcare needs. We can provide every service available at a nursing facility in the comfort of your loved one's home. From companionship, to toileting and hygiene assistance, to in-home blood draws, our services are available around the clock to meet our clients' every need.

BrightStar also provides healthcare staffing solutions to businesses on a temporary, temporary to permanent and permanent placement basis. We provide personnel to hospitals, nursing homes, doctors' offices, labs and anywhere healthcare staff is needed.

The Opportunity



How Bright is Your Future?
BrightStar is focused on serving the fastest growing population segment, seniors! By 2012, there will be over 40 million of us over the age of 65. Right now, 7000 people a day turn 65. People over 85 represent the fastest growing population segment-and the wealthiest. Studies indicate that 75% of the wealth in the U.S. is controlled by grandparents and BrightStar is answering the call to meet the growing demand for quality care In fact, BrightStar is one of the few companies that serve multiple market segments, including care for adults and seniors in their homes, well and sick childcare and a full range of medical staffing services. We are also the only one in our industry that can provide all levels of care for children. That means we attract a larger number of clients and higher profits.

The Requirements


We are looking for people who have strong management/marketing/sales backgrounds. This business is about making friends and doing what you say you will do. A background in healthcare is NOT necessary. Technical expertise doesn't always translate to an ability to work with others and make great things happen. Your contribution will be leadership, not providing medical care.

Typical start-up costs range from $102,000 - $184,000. Minimum net worth of $400,000. Our owners must take a full-time role in the business for the first two years.

To become a BrightStar franchisee, you need a vision for your life, a readiness to learn and a passion to succeed. We'll provide the rest. Connect with us and find out what kind of people we are, what we have achieved and what we can bring to your life.
