Interim HealthCare Announces Franchise Expansion Plans
in St. Louis

SUNRISE, FL -- 06/08/10 -- Interim HealthCare® Inc., the nation's first and finest healthcare and in-home senior care franchise company, is offering St. Louis residents the opportunity to own their own business with an Interim HealthCare franchise. With a network of more than 300 independently owned franchises across the country, Interim is now seeking franchisee candidates in St. Louis to be part of an aggressive growth campaign designed to increase its U.S. presence over time.

Interim's senior care franchises include non-medical and medical personal care, nursing and healthcare staffing services. The system has a 40 year history within the healthcare industry and many of their franchisees have an average tenure of 24 years.

Executives from Interim will be in town to host a franchise opportunities seminar on June 15th at 7 p.m. at the Crowne Plaza St. Louis Clayton for all interested candidates. To register for the event and learn more please call 888-286-8312.

"Interim HealthCare has been assisting patients and their families since 1966 and we are excited to expand our footprint in St. Louis," said Kathleen Gilmartin, CEO of Interim HealthCare. "We are looking for interested individuals to join our team who have the sensitivity and compassion needed in our business to help our customers when it matters most."

Currently with one franchisee in Independence, Missouri, Interim is looking to expand its presence throughout the state by indentifying a select group of franchisees in St. Louis. Qualified candidates should possess a minimum net worth of $400,000, and a minimum liquidity of $50,000. Franchisees can expect their initial investment to range from approximately $115,500 to $188,500 including the franchise fee.

"Today there are 1 in 8 people 65 or older and by 2030 there will be more than twice that number," said Gilmartin. "Therefore the growing senior population and home care growth market is a great niche for franchising and with additional Interim HealthCare franchises in the St. Louis area, we will help the increasing need," said Gilmartin.

Franchisees utilize comprehensive operations, financial, training, and sales systems to assist in operating their business at maximum efficiency and effectiveness. Additionally, they receive extensive local and national marketing support throughout the year. Interim HealthCare franchise owners share a commitment to improving the lives of their patients and communities, and they continue to realize opportunities for growth in the growing baby boomer segment and home care industry.
