The BrighTSTar inSpiraTiOnWe know how overwhelming the responsibility of caring for a family member can be. We once needed help caring for a loved one, but didn’t know where to turn to give her the quality of care, and the quality of life, she deserved.

Compelled by a need to find care that was more — more dependable, more supportive, more complete — we founded BrightStar as a family business in 2002 to provide the full continuum of homecare, childcare, staffing and support services for individuals, families and healthcare facilities.

Why BrighTSTar?BrightStar is focused on serving the fastest growing population segment, seniors! By 2012, in the U.S., there will be over 40 million people 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 senior citizens 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. With multiple revenue lines and a diverse client base, think of the opportunities that a BrightStar franchise can offer you!

WhaT We are LOOKing fOrWe 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 contributions will be leadership, passion and integrity, not providing medical care.

Typical start-up costs range from $90,895 - $158,223 (2010 FDD). Minimum net worth of $400,000. Our owners must take a full-time role in the business for the first two years.

If you have a readiness to learn, a passion to succeed and a desire to align with a brand built on integrity, we would love to speak with you!
