Home Care Marketing Agency

Get Found by Families Who Need Care — and Turn Them Into Clients

One team for your website, Google Business Profile, social media and Meta ads, built only for home care agencies. Every channel connects to fast follow-up, so the inquiries you pay for become booked assessments.

Reporting on calls and assessments, not just clicks

Founded by an RN and former agency owner

Home care only

What does a home care marketing agency do?

A home care marketing agency builds and runs the online presence families use to choose a home care provider. At CareOpsHQ that means four connected services: a website built for search engines and AI answers, Google Business Profile management, social media marketing, and Meta (Facebook and Instagram) ads. Each one feeds the same follow-up system, so new inquiries get answered quickly and move toward an in-home assessment.

The real problem

Families are searching. Are they finding you?

When a parent falls or comes home from the hospital, the family searches Google, checks reviews, looks at Facebook and increasingly asks AI assistants for recommendations. If your agency isn’t showing up with a clear, trustworthy answer, the call goes to someone else.

You're invisible online

An outdated website, a thin Google profile and a quiet Facebook page tell families little about why they should trust you.

Marketing isn't your job

You’re already covering shifts, hiring and handling client needs. Posting, ads and website updates keep sliding to next week.

Generic agencies don't get it

You’ve paid marketers who didn’t understand home care, client privacy or why a referral from a discharge planner matters more than a “like.”

Good agencies shouldn’t lose families to competitors simply because they’re harder to find. You deserve marketing that works as hard as your caregivers do.

Your guide

Marketing from people who've run a home care agency

CareOpsHQ was founded by Magna Johnston-Bucknor, a registered nurse with more than 25 years of experience who owned a non-medical home care agency in Maryland for six years. She learned what families look for before they call, what makes a referral partner trust you, and how many leads are lost simply because no one answered.

That’s why our marketing is built around one outcome: more booked assessments. We know the industry’s language, its privacy obligations and the difference between a busy page and a growing census.

Service 1

Home care websites built for SEO, GEO and AI visibility

A home care website should do two jobs: show up when families search, and make it easy for them to call or book an assessment.

Service 2

Google Business Profile management for home care agencies

For “home care near me” searches, your Google Business Profile is often the first thing a family sees, before your website.
Local results depend on how relevant, close and prominent your business looks to Google. You can’t change your distance from a searcher, but you can make your profile complete, accurate and active, and build real reviews over time.

Done the compliant way: no honest company can guarantee a #1 ranking or a mention in ChatGPT. We build the foundation that earns visibility and report what actually changes.

Service 3

Social media marketing that builds trust

Families and referral partners check your social pages to see whether you’re real, active and caring.
We plan and publish content that answers families’ questions, shows the people behind your agency and keeps you visible to social workers, discharge planners and senior communities. Social also supports caregiver recruiting by showing applicants what it’s like to work for you.
Privacy first :  no client names, photos or stories are posted without written authorization. Caregiver spotlights are shared only with the caregiver’s consent.

What's included

  • Monthly content calendar for Facebook, Instagram and LinkedIn
  • Educational posts for families written with nurse insight
  • Caregiver spotlights and recruiting posts
  • Referral-partner content for professionals on LinkedIn
  • Branded graphics and short video guidance
  • Profile optimization so every bio says the same thing
  • Monthly reporting on reach, engagement and inquiries

What's included

  • Profile setup or cleanup, verification support and correct categories
  • Services, service areas, hours and a description written for families
  • Real photos of your team and office (no stock images)
  • Regular Google posts and answers to common questions
  • Automated review requests to every client family you serve
  • Privacy-safe responses to every review
  • Matching listings on Bing, Apple Maps and key directories
  • Monthly report: calls, website clicks and direction requests
Ad spend is paid directly to Meta and is separate from our management fee.
Service 4

Meta ads for home care: client and caregiver campaigns

Facebook and Instagram ads can put your agency in front of adult children in your service area and help you fill caregiver openings.
We run two kinds of campaigns: family-facing campaigns that drive calls and assessment requests, and recruiting campaigns that bring caregivers into your hiring pipeline.
What most agencies aren’t told : Meta began restricting how health and wellness advertisers can optimize and track conversions in early 2025, and job ads fall under Meta’s employment special ad category, which limits targeting. We check how your ad account is classified and build campaigns, landing pages and tracking around those rules, measuring results in your own system rather than relying on Meta’s numbers alone.

Home Care Marketing FAQ Table
Ask this Why it matters Our answer
Do you only work with home care and senior care? Home care has its own buyers, referral sources and privacy rules. Yes. Home care and healthcare organizations only.
Who owns my website, domain and Google profile? You should never lose your online presence if you leave. You own your domain and Google Business Profile; we work with manager access.
What do you report each month? Likes and impressions don't pay payroll. Calls, inquiries, booked assessments and cost per lead.
How do you get reviews? Fake, filtered or paid reviews violate FTC rules and Google policy. Consistent requests to every client family, never gated or incentivized.
Do you guarantee rankings or AI mentions? No one controls Google's or AI tools' results. No. We guarantee the work and report honestly on results.
How do you handle client privacy? Posting client details without authorization creates real risk. No client identifiers without written authorization.
What happens after a lead comes in? Slow follow-up is where many paid leads are lost. Instant follow-up by phone, text and email, including after hours.

FAQ

Questions about home care marketing

Home Care Agency FAQs

Most agencies grow from a combination of a strong Google Business Profile, a clear website that ranks for local searches, steady reviews, relationships with referral sources such as discharge planners and social workers, and fast follow-up on every inquiry. Paid ads and social media add reach, but they work best when that foundation is in place.

SEO builds over months, not days. Timing depends on your market's competition, your current website and how many reviews and local mentions you have. Google Business Profile improvements and ads can produce inquiries sooner while your website's search visibility grows.

AI assistants draw on search results and on what other trusted sources say about your agency. The same steps that help in Google help here: a crawlable website with specific, accurate answers, a complete Google profile, consistent listings across directories and genuine reviews. No one can guarantee an AI mention, and you should be wary of anyone who does.

They can, especially for reaching adult children in your service area and for caregiver recruiting. Meta limits some targeting and tracking for health-related and employment ads, so campaigns need to be set up around those rules and measured by calls and assessments in your own system.

Often, yes. We start with a review. If your current site can be fixed, we improve it. If it can't be made fast, crawlable and easy to update, we'll explain why a rebuild is the better investment.

We ask to be added as a manager. Your agency remains the owner of the profile, so you keep control if you ever change providers.

No. Ad spend is paid directly to Meta from your account, and our management fee is separate. We'll recommend a starting budget based on your market and goals on your strategy call.

Yes. If you haven't opened yet, we can help with licensing preparation, policies and procedures, setup and coaching, then launch your marketing when you're ready. Learn about starting a home care agency.
