Just Like Family (JLF) is a care giving company that offers personal caregivers to elderly clients aging in place in Canada. They offer services like home care, companionship and overnight care. They operate in a franchise model and currently operate in 29 locations in Canada.

This brand was recently transferred ownership through a social acquisition, a practice where impact investors buy out a for-profit, independently owned business to prevent it from being scooped up by a private equity firm.

Through this model they wished to transform how home care was done throughout Canada. The concept, could this be more than a home care business, could this is a movement? What would this look like?

Home care is a hot business!

There is a growing need with the aging population, investors are picking up home care businesses, franchise networks are scaling, and yet putting people in the middle of business model is falling short. There is a growing need to do more than just home care and to actually care about these grandparents and seniors who are aging in place and are seeking to full lives and do the things that they love as long as they can.

With the existing home care franchise of Just Like Family;

- Are there additional products or services that should be considered?

- How could technology be leveraged over the next 5 years to transform delivery models and what should be considered (with consideration to seniors’ adoption rates of technology)?

- Are there additional services or resources that Just Like Family Home Care should consider as part of their social enterprise model?
