Top Honors from Franchise Business Review

7.  In October 2018, Franchise Business Review released its annual Franchise Business Review survey and Visiting Angels nabbed a top spot in two categories: Top Innovative Franchises and Top Rated Franchise Opportunities for Veterans.

8.  For the Top Innovative Franchises list, Franchise Business Review surveyed over 24,000 franchisees from many of today’s leading franchise brands to determine the most innovative franchises, based 100 percent on franchisee satisfaction. Each survey participant was asked 33 benchmark questions about their franchisor that focused on areas such as leadership, training, and core values as well as 16 more personal questions concerning their business lifestyle and overall enjoyment of running their franchise. For 2018, 100 brands made it onto Franchise Business Review’s list and Visiting Angels was ranked No. 16.

9.  Franchise Business Review surveyed over 26,000 franchisees from many of today’s leading franchise brands to determine the top franchises for veterans, based 100 percent on franchisee satisfaction. The process was similar to the one used to determine the Top Innovative Franchises. Only 80 brands were ranked on the Top Rated Franchise Opportunities for Veterans list in 2018. Visiting Angels was also ranked No. 16 on that list.

Company History

10.  Visiting Angels traces its roots to 1989 when co-founder Jeffrey Johnson was working as the director of social work at a nursing home in Baltimore, Maryland and felt that there weren’t enough resources for the nursing home residents. Johnson also did not like that many people were indifferent toward the residents. Additionally, Johnson recognized that there were very limited options for living arrangements for seniors outside of the nursing home.

11.  As a result, Johnson wanted to offer more choices for families and more options for the elderly. He wanted to give the elderly population what they cherished most – the ability to remain in their homes. Over the next few years, Johnson began the mission of providing seniors with a caring and compassionate environment in the comfort of their own homes. He built a business providing for the needs of seniors by offering top quality, experienced caregivers (and giving families a choice in caregivers).

12.  In 1998, Johnson met Larry Meigs, a franchise developer from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, who was working to launch Visiting Angels as a national franchisor in private duty home care. Together, they opened Visiting Angels/Living Assistance Services with the intention of promoting a unique approach to home care: “Caring first, profits second.” Today, Meigs is still the CEO of Visiting Angels and the company has locations across the U.S.
