Father-Son Duo Mark and Michael Mooney Add BrightStar Care to Their Franchise Portfolio

in Franchise News, Senior In-Home Care Franchises

Mark Mooney and his son Michael are successful multi-unit franchisees and business owners based in Florida. Their business interests include two Massage Envy locations, a spa and massage service franchise; Veramea, a consulting firm whose mission is to help entrepreneurs grow and innovate; and MyEduLife, a company that creates software for educational institutions.

The Mooneys recently expanded their franchise portfolio to include BrightStar Care, a home care franchise that provides both medical and non-medical care to clients in their homes. Recognizing this line of business as attractive because of the country’s graying population, the father-son duo decided to acquire a total of four BrightStar Care territories (in West Seminole, Orange, East Volusia, and Lake County, Florida).

BrightStar Care, which matches clients with qualified, pre-screened caregivers, is one of the few home care providers that offer both medical and non-medical home care, available to clients 24/7.

The decision to enter the home care business was also a deeply personal one for Mark, who recently lost his parents. When Mark’s mother and father reached the age where they could no longer care for themselves, the family decided to take them to an assisted living facility because of the lack of quality options for in-home care.


šŸŽÆFind Best-Fit Franchises Still Available in Your Target Area (Free Tool)
When I owned a UPS Store, I learned firsthand how much your ZIP code shapes your outcome. I sold my store at a premium because my territory was in a high-value area. The best areas go first, and once they're gone, they're gone. Enter your ZIP code, and a territory specialist will walk you through the franchises still available near you, drawing on information that isn't publicly accessible, saving you months of wasted research.

Colin started as a team member at 21 and now owns 6 locations in Tampa Bay. Lisa came from marketing and built 21 in San Diego. The most successful multi-unit owners move early and secure markets with room to grow. Use our free tool to search multiple ZIP codes and find franchises where you can still stack locations, before someone else does. A franchise specialist will be in touch to present what's available.

ā€œOur family knows from personal experience the trials and tribulations that arise when searching for quality health care – especially for family members, whom you want to see happy and safe,ā€ said Mark Mooney. ā€œBrightStar’s reputation within the healthcare industry is unsurpassed and they offer franchisees a support system that sets us up for success in a very competitive field. We are very proud of our BrightStar family and their desire to carry forth a quality brand.ā€
