Franchise

What does becoming a Regina Homecare franchise really mean?

If you’re thinking of opening up a franchise you’ve probably got plenty of questions, such as “what are the benefits of a Regina Homecare franchise over another care company franchise?”, and “what do you need to get started as a franchise?”. Here we look at these questions in detail and cover a few others too.

Here’s a brief overview of how we work, broken down into five simple stages:

The five stages of creating a Care Home franchise

We Meet


By the time we arrange our first meeting you will already have completed the information in this confidential form. This will help us to evaluate your suitability for a Regina Homecare franchise. If we feel you are, we will present the opportunity to you.

sharing preliminary figures and looking at potential areas that might be suitable for you. We will also give you some top tips on researching your market and answer any queries you may have.

Further discussions


At this stage we’ll be ready to discuss territories with you and help you prepare an initial business plan. Once your business plan has been completed and approved by us, we will introduce you to the centralised franchise department for the bank who will then put you in touch with the appropriate regional business development manager.

You may then need to have a follow-up meeting with our franchise recruitment team, during which you’ll both agree the territory (it will then be reserved for you for a maximum of four weeks). Once all these elements are in place, we’ll move to the approval stage and we’ll ask you to pay a pre-arranged deposit to secure your franchise.

  • You join Regina Homecare

    At this point we will discuss a potential signing date when you will officially become owner of your franchise and agree a training date with you.

    To enable you to join Regina Homecare we will need you to sign and agree our franchise agreement and pay the balance of the franchise fee. We’ll then hand over to the support team, who will commence a start-up plan with you. You’ll then be required to prepare relevant documentation for your training and attend the pre-arrange training course at our head office.

Open for business

Before launching for business you’ll need to acquire Care Quality Commission (CQC) registration (read more about the CQC here). If your franchise is based outside England you’ll need to register to the relevant body. The CIW is the regulatory body for Wales, the RQIA is for Northern Ireland, and The Care Inspectorate is for Scotland.


Once you have the relevant registration you’re all set to go – ready to begin your Regina Homecare journey!

Your care worker will be selected to suit your personal care needs, and our work focuses on caring individually for people like you or your loved one, in the way that you would wish.

Testimonial

Mr Gladson

"I would like to recommend the high level of patient care and the excellent provision of essential services because: 1. I am a diabetic amputee (right leg above the knee) suffering from high blood pressure, painful flexor muscle spasms and high levels of blood glucose which are controlled by insulin. 2. Consequently, with my shopping done for me by Regina Home care, I am able to continue my work as an ex-Editor of the World Medical Journal. 3. My Care Worker, as part of a team, checks and cleans my kitchen, fixes the light bulbs, mops the floor weekly, makes my bed and vacuums the carpets - all of which I couldn't do by myself. So I am indeed grateful that I can carry on living independently".
