Domiciliary care franchise Caremark has strengthened its support team with the appointment of Patrick Thompson (pictured) as Franchise Recruitment Manager and Tracy Newcombe as Regional Support Manager for the North.

The Caremark support team has continued to grow since its launch in 2005, now with 14 members of staff supporting over 60 franchise owners. Patrick Thompson will be bringing his wealth of experience in both franchising and the care sector to work along side the existing franchise support team.

Thompson said: “The appeal of Caremark was twofold – it provides excellent service in social care, which is continuing to grow through diversification of services and the number of people who benefit from them. For the right person, a franchise partnership with Caremark offers a fantastically rewarding business, personally as well as financially.”Caremark has also appointed Newcombe to support franchise owners in the North of the UK.

She said: “I am very pleased to be part of the Caremark team and look forward to supporting the Northern region. I have worked within the private sector both health and social care markets for almost 20 years and look forward to sharing my knowledge and expertise, so I can continue to help support and develop what is already a successful region in delivering the highest standards of service.”
