According to the U.S. Census, more than 55 million Americans are 65 years of age or older, and that number is expected to exceed 70 million by 2030. With a population that steadily is aging, the need for healthcare professionals is growing as well. Since being founded in 2010 by Nadia Gruzd, one of the nation’s top global healthcare talent acquisition and recruiting experts, All Med Search has worked diligently to place direct-hire candidates in medical facilities to help eliminate expensive temporary employee costs and build cohesive care teams. Gruzd franchised her concept in 2019 as a result of its innovative, personalized solutions receiving heightened demand.
All Med Search has a low barrier to entry, so franchisees can begin building their business as owner-operators with one internal employee and then move into a semi-absentee owner position as they grow. This proven franchise model also offers flexibility with work that can be entirely remote; franchisees do not need to live in the territories they own.
Unlike some businesses that require a long ramp-up, Gruzd reported high profit margins, with many franchisees reaching their break-even point within six to 12 months of opening and earning a profit within a year. Due to All Med Search’s proven system, franchisees do not need experience in the healthcare industry to succeed. After onboarding, they gain access to critical resources, including comprehensive training, signed nationwide contracts and recruitment strategies. Additionally, the corporate office handles all back-
office functions to allow franchisees to focus on growing their business and placing candidates.
For Gruzd, the work offers a sense of purpose and a great lifestyle. “I didn’t come from a lot of money, and I wanted to be able to get my kids into the best schools, drive nice cars, live in a nice house and travel whenever I want to travel. It’s all been through recruiting that I have been able to do so,” she said.
Franchise opportunities currently are available in hot markets throughout the U.S.
