The Avendelle model is operationally structured to be efficient and simple in nature, allowing for ease of duplication in new markets. The corporate location of Avendelle will be used as a goal and ideal example of what this franchise can become. With good management and the guidance of Avendelle’s franchise program, a franchisee can strive to build an organization as well-managed and structured as the business in Raleigh, NC.

Avendelle model is certainly adaptable nationally, the concept is almost indiscriminate of the market it is located in. In all markets, the concept has been very successful and proven the sturdiness of the Avendelle concept. In most parts of the U.S., the population of seniors is increasing as well as the number of disabled people who need home-care services. This is a booming market that, with good marketing and motivated franchisees, could work just about anywhere.

The American public wants to be at home when they need extra care. The idea of going to a nursing home or assisted living facility is generally looked down upon. The key will be for Avendelle to continue to provide professional, high-quality service with a focus on truly providing great care to the residents. That will continue to build brand equity and value for Avendelle throughout the franchise system.

The Avendelle model is one of many senior care franchise models. The concept is differentiated by providing amazingly consistent, high-quality service to residents using a “We Care” attitude and by delivering service in a compact and efficient home care setting using a converted residential property as the senior facility. Most companies in this marketplace are focused on business before the client. At Avendelle, it always comes down to providing great care and offering the client the best possible experience we can provide.

The management of Avendelle has been in the same business since 2005 and has a background in the nursing and home-care business. The corporate operations have a wonderful reputation for high-quality care in the North Carolina market. Avendelle Assisted Living has also been recognized by the Franchise Registry, bringing the franchisor a streamlined review process by the SBA.
