Leverage the Guava Home Healthcare Franchise Model to Your Advantage!

Given the competitive landscape of our industry, as business-builders ourselves we understand the importance of a competitive advantage, which is why we’ve gone to such lengths to develop an innovative business model that uniquely enables our franchisees to focus on competing with their respective competitors and growing their businesses, not on pushing mundane paperwork.

1. Full back-of-house support To enable franchisees to hit the ground running and avoid getting weighed down by administrative duties, the Guava®corporate team provides franchisees billing management services, marketing support, payroll & payment processing, and ongoing support & training (including on-site mentoring and quick response times on daily communications) to ensure they have all the resources and tools necessary to create and maintain a successful healthcare franchise.

2. Multiple revenue streams & incentives. Our services extend beyond just seniors, thereby allowing for a broad spectrum of revenue streams including private pay, corporate contracts, federal contracts, staffing contracts, Medicare, Medicaid, insurance companies, long-term care, veterans contracts and much more. From pediatric to geriatric care, a Guava franchise covers a wide variety of home care needs, including transitional care for outbound surgery patients, new mothers, disabled individuals, fragile child care, home from the hospital care, respite care and care management. Guava’s healthcare franchise model even provides for corporations needing in-home healthcare coverage for employee loved ones, allowing employees to remain on the job at no out of pocket expense. Furthermore, Guava’s royalty schedule rewards franchisees for their ability to grow their business. By employing a tiered royalty schedule, Guava helps its franchisees to achieve increasing margins over time as greater levels of sales are achieved, thereby enhancing franchisees’ profitability.

3. A complete technology support system and dedicated Account Manager. Home healthcare agencies face growing pressure to increase operational efficiency, boost productivity, reduce costs and improve quality of care. We utilize the market-leading technology system – complete with a proprietary package customized to Guava’s unique model – to ensure clinical compliance, improve quality of care, streamline administrative processes, and reduce time between service delivery and billing. Our system improves patient care and quality through Assured Coverage and increases clinical compliance by ensuring the 5 Rights: The Right patient is serviced at the Right time, in the Right location, with the Right plan of care by the Right caregiver.
   
   Additionally, the Guava account management team works with the franchisees to ensure that their business needs are met on time and in a satisfactory manner. This involves analyzing the ever-changing needs of the Home Care industry and making sure that their aware of our recommended changes to improve their business needs as well as administer all insurance billing, private pay and payroll. Our Account Managers strive to build strong professional relationships with our franchisees, as we’re committed to providing you with unparalleled service and expert support.

4. The Guava Building Block Healthcare System™ - our proprietary model for growth - is different than any other franchise development model in the industry. The Building Block Healthcare System™ assists you as you start your home healthcare franchise, outlining obtainable goals and working within your budget at your own pace. From at-home, non-medical services to healthcare staffing, our system guides franchisees from one phase of development to the next to allow franchisees to acclimate methodically to the home healthcare industry and develop client relationships systematically.

5. Wide-open, protected territories are available. Guava is in high-gear developing a national franchising network, and the time is right now for prospective franchisees and development partners to sign onwith a multi-unit royalty credit if a Franchisee is operating more than three offices. Given Guava’s franchising business is in the early stages of development, Guava offers the flexibility to carve out a larger territory than would otherwise be available with other national healthcare franchisors. Multi-territory opportunities exist all over the U.S. – worldwide for that matter – in the most coveted, densely populated geographies.

Compared to our competition, the Guava approach has been formulated to allow franchisees the following:

1. To qualify with little to no healthcare experience.

2. To offer more services sooner from a home based business.

3. To spend less time on paperwork and more time growing your business.

4. To focus on building the business through marketing and networking.

5. To have time to enjoy the contributions they make to their community.
