How much does a Nurse Next Door franchise make?

Nurse Next Door is one of the franchisors that answers this on the record: its most recent FDD makes an Item 19 financial performance representation — actual unit earnings figures, disclosed by the franchisor itself. The average revenue Nurse Next Door reports, what that figure does and doesn't include, and where it ranks against senior & home care peers are in the full report. See every senior & home care brand that discloses earnings in the Senior & home care franchises with disclosed Item 19 earnings ranking.

Nurse Next Door franchise profit vs. revenue

Revenue is not profit. An Item 19 almost always reports sales — what a location takes in — not what an owner keeps. Out of that number come Nurse Next Door's 5% royalty, the ad fund, rent, payroll, supplies and debt service. No FDD tells you a Nurse Next Door franchise's profit, because profit depends on your site, your rent and how you run it — so treat any "Nurse Next Door franchise profit" figure quoted elsewhere as someone's estimate, not a disclosure. The full report sets Nurse Next Door's disclosed revenue against its total ongoing fee load, so you can see what that revenue has to cover before anything reaches you.

Nurse Next Door lawsuits & legal history (FDD Item 3)

Nurse Next Door's most recently filed Franchise Disclosure Document (2025) does disclose legal proceedings in Item 3 . Item 3 is the item where a franchisor must put its material legal history on the record. Two things it is not: it covers the franchisor and its predecessors, parents and affiliates, so a disclosed case is not necessarily a suit against Nurse Next Door itself; and a disclosure is a fact, not a finding of wrongdoing — most entries are contract disputes with former franchisees, which every large system accumulates. The full Nurse Next Door report lists each case with what it was about and how it ended, separates franchisee disputes from corporate and securities matters, and flags the ones a franchisee started — the split that actually matters, because franchisees suing their franchisor is the signal a buyer is looking for.

Nurse Next Door closures & failure rate

Before you sign, Nurse Next Door will hand you a list of current owners to call as references — and they choose who's on that list. It won't include the owners who quit, got bought out, or were forced out last year. The FDD does report that number, even though the reference list leaves those people off. Below is what Nurse Next Door's most recent filing shows, and whether it's normal for a senior & home care of this kind.

The closest thing an FDD has to a failure rate is Item 20 — outlet openings, closures, terminations and non-renewals, reported by the franchisor. Nurse Next Door's latest tables show significant franchisee turnover. The actual closure and termination counts, and how Nurse Next Door's churn ranks against senior & home care peers, are in the full report.
