Avendelle Family Care Homes, LLC is dedicated to being the premier provider of Personalized Senior Care Homes in the Senior Care industry.  The global launch of Avendelle is the culmination of nearly a decade of proven success within the senior care industry and represents a proven business model backed by a leadership team that has an established track record of replicating the business model in different markets.  

Avendelle achieves significant business results in comparison to the rest of the senior care industry.  Seniors and families who are tasked  with caring for an aging family member are faced with the decision of where to place their loved one.  Today, the majority have chosen In-Home Senior care as the primary option, due to the significant negative perception for larger nursing facilities. 

With Avendelle, there is another option for families and seniors – by offering a smaller, intimate setting for clients, the family and the client are assured that there is significant attention on their well-being, care, and overall emotional status. Avendelle offers the client a converted residential home which holds between 4-10 residents.  With two staff members on site, the level of attention, care, and time spent with each client is significant.

Additionally, the family does not need to worry about the upkeep of a home or having caregivers come and go from their property. Avendelle offers security, attentiveness, relationship-driven client care, and most of all, a commitment to the well-being of the senior.  Now, through the franchise offering, Avendelle Family Care Homes provides new opportunities in the senior care industry with business partners selected to franchise with us.

The management and founders of Avendelle bring a background in the nursing field in addition to having developed businesses outside of the industry.  These skill sets and operating experience bring value to the organization and the franchise system.  It is this centralized focus on care in a unique and client-centric business model for the client that differentiates Avendelle from other Senior Home care agencies.
