Starting a non-medical home care business,  is a great business opportunity for anyone who is compassionate, caring and honest. It’s a perfect way to earn income while helping seniors or disabled individuals  who prefer to stay in their own homes. It provides them  with personal care and light housekeeping services. That allows caregivers to be their own boss and work the hours they prefer.

HAVE A BUSINESS PLAN…
Like any type of businesses, you need to have a business plan to start a non medical home care business. Set up the structure and the basics of your business, name, mission and goals, audience, describe your services, etc.

HAVE A FINANCIAL PLAN…
Have a financial plan for your business, set up your budget, some costs you might need to include licensing, marketing, payroll if you are hiring additional staff … etc.

You will need to obtain a Federal Employer Identification Number (EIN) from the IRS before you can apply for licensing or opening a business checking account.

STATE REQUIREMENTS AND CERTIFICATIONS…
Check for your state licensing requirements, write policies and procedures that meet state standards and customized to your home care business.
