Elder-Well® Founder Kara Harvey Featured in Franchise Journal Magazine

We’re proud to share that Elder-Well^® Co-Founder Kara Harvey has been spotlighted in the September 2025 issue of the Franchise Journal in the feature article, “Ahead of the Curve: How Kara Harvey Is Shaping the Future of Senior Care. Again.”

The piece highlights Kara’s journey in building Elder-Well^® into a trusted and compassionate adult day care model while showcasing her forward-thinking leadership in the evolving senior care industry.

Throughout her decades-long career in aging services, she recognized a critical gap: existing adult day programs were failing to meet the changing needs of older adults and their families. “Seniors hesitate to attend adult day care because they remember the institutionalized, impersonal care their grandparents experienced in the 1950s,” she explains. “We needed to reimagine it entirely.”

And reimagine it she did! ☀️ With Elder-Well, Kara created an entirely new category in the senior care space by offering safe, home-like environments enriched with therapeutic activities, nutritious meals, and meaningful peer connections. “It’s a place of dignity, purpose, and belonging,” says Harvey.

Kara’s philosophy and dedication have positioned Elder-Well as a leader in the rapidly evolving senior care space. Franchisees nationwide have invested in this vision for the future and brought it to life in their communities. Start your journey here with the Elder-Well^® Franchise System.

“I’ve seen where we’ve been, and I know where we need to go,” says Harvey. “Adult day care isn’t the backup plan, it’s the proactive, person-centered choice.” 💜

We are honored to see Kara recognized for the compassionate and inspiring visionary that she is, and we invite you to read the full article to learn more about her inspiring journey.
