TL;DR

BrightStar Care Greensboro has been sold to a new ownership group, Jill and Todd Starcevich. The location provides high-quality home care services and will support a COVID-19 vaccine trial in North Carolina.

BrightStar Care, one of the nation's leading private duty home care and medical staffing franchise with more than 340 locations, announced that its Greensboro office is now operating under new ownership.

BrightStar Care of Greensboro provides a higher standard of home care services, from Companionship to Skilled Medical Services, available from one hour to 24/7 care. From their industry-leading employee screening and training to Registered Nurse (RN) oversight on every individualized plan of care, BrightStar Care is committed to supporting every one of their clients and families, so that they can maintain their independence in conjunction with also managing their unique age- and health-related challenges with ease.

The location is newly owned by husband and wife duo, Jill & Todd Starcevich who were inspired by their previous career backgrounds to open an in-home care business that provides the highest quality of care to local families. Jill previously worked as a health and wellness coordinator for hospitals and Todd had a background in retail and consumer products industry. They were attracted to BrightStar Care as they both were longing for a career change and the next step was own their business.

With Jill’s extensive hospital experience, they knew in-home care would be a seamless fit. After learning about BrightStar Care, the brand’s mission and the brand’s recognition by The Joint Commission, they decided BrightStar Care was the perfect franchise investment. As BrightStar Care provides guidance, the Greensboro location will be providing support for a COVID-19 vaccine trial in North Carolina.

They will also equip nurses with supplies to perform tests and support the trial process. It’s highly sensitive and important that programs such as this require dedicated nurses and smart program management.

“We’ve always wanted to own our own business; however, we didn’t want to be completely on our own. With BrightStar Care, they helped us every step of the way,” said BrightStar Care franchise owner Todd Starcevich. “As the demand for in-home care will only increase due to the pandemic, we’re happy to be a part of the BrightStar Care family and provide the highest quality of care to local families.”

“The Starcevich’s background in healthcare and consumer experience has set them up for success in owning their first BrightStar Care franchise,” said Shelly Sun, CEO and founder of BrightStar Care. “They are both so passionate about helping others and I know they will make a great difference to all clients and families they have the honor of working with.”

Based in Chicago, BrightStar Care is a national private duty home care and medical staffing franchise with nearly 340 locations which provide medical and non-medical services to clients within their homes, as well as supplemental care staff to corporate clients. BrightStar Care franchise locations across the country employ over 20,000 caregivers and over 3,500 nurses who play a unique role in overseeing the care for each individual client. In addition, BrightStar Care is the only national home care franchise to receive The Joint Commission's Enterprise Champion for Quality award every year since the award's inception.
