Join the fastest growing homecare company in the world.
Nurse Next Door’s franchise concept has always been built around one key, unique differentiator, centralisation. Unlike every other home health care franchise system, we believe our Franchise Partners should be out in their community, not stuck behind a desk. Our unique Centralised Care Services Centre is essential in keeping your quality high and costs low from the very start, allowing you to scale your business without all the headaches of scheduling, attendance monitoring and other challenges that all other homecare providers face.
A Booming Industry with Long-Term Demand
The global demand for home care is surging. Key trends shaping this opportunity include:
- The UK’s over-65 population is projected to rise to nearly 20% by 2030, driving demand for personalised care at home. (Office for National Statistics)
- Over 70% of older adults prefer to age in place, not in residential facilities, a foundational driver of the home care market. (British Geriatrics Society)
- The UK home care market is estimated to grow at 7–9% annually over the next decade, outpacing many traditional service industries.
Why Nurse Next Door Stands Out
You Don’t Need a Healthcare Background
Many successful Nurse Next Door franchise owners came from business, management or non-healthcare backgrounds. What matters most is leadership, passion for quality service, and a desire to support positive ageing, not clinical experience.
Our comprehensive training and support frameworks allow you to:
- Understand regulated care delivery
- Navigate CQC registration with confidence
- Build strong local teams that deliver exceptional care
We know growing a business can be daunting, which is why our franchise model is designed to remove barriers and accelerate success:
- Turnkey training and onboarding - from business fundamentals to care delivery leadership
- CQC guidance and compliance support - we help guide you through every regulatory step
- Operations systems, marketing & recruitment frameworks - so you’re not reinventing the wheel
- Dedicated coaching - you’re never alone
- Multiple territory opportunities - from single regions to multi-location growth pathways
Multiple Territories & Growth Paths
Unlike some franchise models with a single zone, Nurse Next Door offers:
- A wide portfolio of available territories across England
- Multi-territory growth paths for franchise partners
- Strategic expansion support for high-potential franchise partners
A Unique Philosophy: Happier Ageing
At Nurse Next Door, we’ve pioneered the Happier Ageing® philosophy, a positive, strengths-focused approach to care that goes beyond clinical needs. It emphasises:
- Independence and dignity
- Community connection and purpose
- Emotional wellbeing and quality of life
Our caregivers are trained to deliver care with empathy and respect, creating deeper client relationships and stronger referral networks, a key driver of both satisfied customers and profitable growth.
The Business Case

Nurse Next Door Recognised as Most Influential Home Care Franchise in Greater London
Nurse Next Door is delighted to share that Karen Patel, CEO of Nurse Next Door, has been named Most Influential CEO 2026 – Home Care Services (Greater London) by CEO Monthly.
While the award recognises Karen’s leadership, it also reflects the strength of the Nurse Next Door brand as a whole. It highlights the positive impact the organisation continues to have across the home care sector for customers, caregivers, franchise partners, and local communities.
What Influence Really Means in Home Care
Influence in home care is not measured solely by growth or market share. True leadership in this sector is about raising standards, acting with purpose, and creating lasting, meaningful change.
This recognition acknowledges:
- A people-first leadership approach
- Continuous innovation in care delivery
- A consistent focus on quality, compassion, and reliability
- The development of a franchise brand partners are proud to represent
At Nurse Next Door, being influential means setting the standard for how care should be delivered and how care businesses should be run.
What Sets Nurse Next Door Apart from Other Home Care Franchises
The home care franchise market is competitive, but Nurse Next Door differentiates itself through a clear, values-driven approach.
1. A Premium, Purpose-Led Care Model
Nurse Next Door is built around a premium home care offering, not a volume-led approach. The focus is on dignity, relationships, and delivering care that genuinely improves quality of life.
Our Making Lives Better® philosophy underpins every part of the business, from customer care to franchise support, ensuring consistency and purpose throughout the network.
2. Established Brand Recognition and Trust
As a globally recognised home care brand, Nurse Next Door benefits from strong visibility and credibility. Franchise partners gain:
- A well-established and trusted brand name
- Clear, consistent marketing and messaging
- Confidence from customers, caregivers, and referral partners
Industry recognition further strengthens this position, offering franchise owners a clear advantage in their local markets.
3. A Centralised Care Services Centre
One of Nurse Next Door’s key differentiators is its centralised Care Services Centre, a resource unique within the sector.
This centre provides 365 days a year clinical oversight, care coordination, and operational support, allowing franchise partners to focus on delivering outstanding local care while benefiting from expert support behind the scenes.
4. Meaningful Franchise Support
Support at Nurse Next Door goes beyond promises. Franchise partners receive:
- Structured onboarding and comprehensive training
- Ongoing coaching and business mentoring
- Operational, compliance, and marketing guidance
- Proven systems designed for long-term, sustainable growth
The focus is not just on launching a business, but on building a successful and resilient one.
5. Caregiving as a Valued Career
High-quality care starts with people. Nurse Next Door places strong emphasis on:
- Valuing and recognising caregivers
- Investing in training and professional development
- Creating a positive, supportive workplace culture
This commitment leads to stronger retention, better care outcomes, and enhanced reputations for franchise partners.
6. Leadership That Drives Real Change
This award reflects leadership that is active, values-led, and focused on the future.
Under Karen Patel’s leadership, Nurse Next Door has:
- Helped raise expectations across the home care industry
- Prioritised quality, compliance, and innovation
- Built a franchise model grounded in integrity and long-term impact
Influence comes from action, and this recognition reflects that commitment.
Why This Recognition Matters to Future Franchise Partners
Being named Most Influential CEO 2026 reinforces Nurse Next Door’s position as:
- A respected and trusted brand
- A forward-thinking franchise opportunity
- A business that attracts customers, caregivers, and investors
For prospective franchise partners, it offers reassurance that they are aligning with a brand that leads with purpose and delivers on its promises.
