Hi Lucy,
I work for CA Employment Development Department in the Veterans Program as the Local Veterans Employment Representative for Solano and Napa Counties. Now I am part of the Workforce Division and main only job is to outreach to Employers to find and employ veterans. This is why I joined your email list. I figure if you send me jobs that veterans are qualified for I can forward them to veterans so they can apply for the job. I hope this is okay with your company policies. If there is any questions feel free to call me at my office number below.

HAVE A GREAT DAY!!!

Always Best Care Senior Services – Franchise Opportunities













You've chosen to explore franchise opportunities with Always Best Care Senior Services - one of the fastest growing Senior Care franchise systems in the United States.

We invite you to learn about the booming market for senior care and how Always Best Care meets the needs of seniors every day. With a proven track record since 1996, Always Best Care is one of the most sought after franchises in the fastest growing, recession-proof market in America.

It’s a fact:  10,000 people turn 65 in the USA every day!

Who We Are
Since 1996, Always Best Care has been providing non-medical in-home care and assisted living finder services. We're now adding skilled home health care in select markets. We began franchising in 2007, and now have more than 180 franchised territories across the United States.

We’re looking forward to learning about you as you learn about us. We want you to be sure that Always Best Care is right for you – and we want to be sure that you’re right for Always Best Care, too. Our discovery process will answer those questions for you and for us. We promise to provide you with the process leadership to enable you to make the right decision, at the right time, and for the right reasons.

So – let’s get started!

The Continuum of Care
The need and desire to age in place is a primary driver of the senior care industry.  Always Best Care takes it even further by providing a "continuum of care.”  Unlike most other senior care companies who offer only a single service, Always Best Care provides everything from a simple daily telephone reassurance program to compassionate in-home care, to more comprehensive skilled home health care (in select markets) and assistance in exploring and finding the right senior living options.  Our continuum of care means Always Best Care franchisees have a series of revenue streams that all flow from the same referral sources.

As an Always Best Care small business franchise, you’ll not only have an opportunity to build a business, but your business will be changing people’s lives for the better. The satisfaction our franchisees derive from making a difference in people’s lives is probably the single most driving factor in their selection of Always Best Care to be their business partner.

National Strength. Local Service.

Always Best Care combines national strength and standards with local accessibility and personal service. Our franchisees are leading the way in meeting the needs of individuals and families in cities and towns throughout the country.

We invite you to learn more about the business opportunities at Always Best Care, our history, systems, culture, programs and support.  In every way, we strive to exceed your expectations … always.  We provide a combination of local and national support that’s unmatched in the senior care industry.  Look through our website to learn about what we do and how we support our franchisees.  Then give us a call.  We’ll do our best to answer all your questions, and to give you a thorough understanding of what it means to be a business owner with Always Best Care.

Please contact an Area Representative to find out more information on owning an Always Best Care Franchise, we would like to assist our veterans in this program through our partnership with VetFran.
