Section I – Background Information

Back in the mid-1990s Michael Newman was frustrated. Living in the area around Sacramento, California, he noticed a distinct lack of quality senior care options in his community.

When seniors get to the phase of their lives where they need to make major changes, they often wind up overwhelmed, confused, and even scared. Making the right choice when it comes to an assisted living facility is one not to be taken lightly.

He set out reshape the senior living facilities he owned and operated into a company that would provide trusted care, compassionate support, and professional advice. That’s why he founded Always Best Care (ABC) in 1996.

He has built the company up into a leading national provider of non-medical in-home care, assisted living placement services, and skilled home health care in select markets. He began franchising the concept in 2007 and now has more than 200 franchised units across the U.S. and Canada, and is now setting his sites on European markets as well, beginning with Germany and the United Kingdom.

ABC caregivers have already worked with more than 25,000 seniors.

Here’s how Always Best Care Senior Services helps individuals (and their families) make the most of their senior years:

Strong Values

Michael Newman believes strongly that what makes a successful home care company is successful relationships, at every level, in all directions. These relationships must be founded on such principles as caring, trust, respect, and communication. The company is all about sincere concern, whether it’s for clients, employees, or franchisees.

Grabbing the Franchise Media Spotlight

Entrepreneur has named ABC one of the fastest growing senior care systems every year for four years.

The National Minority Franchising Initiative (NMFI) named ABC to its annual list of the “50 Top Franchises for Minorities” published in USA Today.

Military Times EDGE named ABC one of the top franchises for veterans, Black Enterprise magazine named it one of the best franchises for African Americans, and Franchise Business Review hailed it as one of the top low-cost franchises.

Going the Extra Mile

At ABC, it’s about more than providing compassionate care to seniors. The company helps guide families through their decision-making process, as well as pointing them towards the solutions that will work best for them, whether that’s ABC or other local resources.

A Solid Market

There are currently more than 40 million seniors in the United States alone, representing about 13.1% of the overall population. But here’s the thing – the number of seniors will more than double by the year 2050, when nearly one out of five people will be 65 or older. It’s the fastest growing segment of the population, and the only group that will continue to increase through 2050.
