ROSEVILLE, Calif. — Always Best Care Senior Services, one of the leading senior care franchise systems in the United States, announced today that it has been selected as the only primary non-medical organization to be awarded with a grant to facilitate rapid Abbott BinaxNOW COVID-19 testing that will further help to ensure the safety of caregivers, clients, patients and their families.

These test allocations allow agencies to test staff once a week and cover staff that visit over 1.8M patients.

“We’re grateful to have been selected for this grant in late 2020 and are proud to have been able to roll out these resources so quickly systemwide. This initiative has given our franchise owners the ability to test their dedicated caregivers consistently for COVID-19 in an effort to help ensure their health and safety,” said Jake Brown, President & CEO of Always Best Care. “By getting quality results back so quickly, our franchises have been able to safely care for their clients and vulnerable populations across the United States.
