Right at Home Signs 10 New Territories at Midyear

Right at Home awarded 10 new franchise territories and completed eight resale transactions in the first half of 2026, keeping the in-home care brand on pace toward its year-end goal of 24 new territories. The growth pushed Right at Home up 73 spots in Entrepreneur's Franchise 500, landing at No. 145 overall and No. 2 in the senior care category. The brand now operates more than 750 locations across the U.S. and four other countries.

AI Moves From Pilot to Daily Operations

A year ago artificial intelligence was mostly exploratory at Right at Home; now an internal AI team works directly with franchise owners on using it to run leaner operations without losing the personal-care model the brand is built on. The company also rolled out an upgraded Right Focus dashboard, giving multi-territory operators a single view of performance across all their locations, a feature aimed squarely at owners managing several territories at once.

Ohio and Wisconsin Are the Next Targets

Right at Home is prioritizing Ohio and Wisconsin for new territory development as it works toward its 24-territory goal for the year. Demand for senior care continues to outpace the supply of quality operators nationally, giving multi-territory franchisees an opening in underserved markets.

Why the Metrics Matter for Franchisees

Resale activity, not just new signings, is often the better signal of system health since it shows existing owners cashing out at valuations that attract fresh buyers. Eight resales alongside 10 new signings in six months suggests demand on both sides of the transaction, a dynamic worth watching as more senior care brands compete for the same pool of operators.
