33,000 Home Care Target Market Represents Significant Revenue Potential
DETROIT, Nov. 14, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Amesite Inc. (NASDAQ: AMST), a leading technology company specializing in AI-driven solutions for B2C and B2B markets, announced today that it is generating revenue in the home care market.
The need for enhanced technology in the home care sector is critical. With staff turnover, documentation requirements and operational costs presenting significant challenges to home care agencies, the application of AI-driven solutions becomes essential to meet the demand for accessible care. In the United States alone, approximately 77% of home care clients are turned away due to workforce and resource limitations1, and putting more stress on family members trying to provide necessary care for their loved ones.
Both independently-owned and franchisee home care businesses represent major opportunities for revenue growth. The National Association for Home Care and Hospice reports 33,000 home care and hospice organizations across the U.S2. Additionally, the home care industry employed roughly 1.4 million workers in 20233. The population of Americans aged 65 and older expanded significantly throughout the 20th century, rising from 3.1 million in 1900 to 35 million by 20004. By 2030, all members of the Baby Boomer generation will be 65 or older. As the number of Americans living with Alzheimer’s disease rises, projected to increase from 6 million today to over 13 million by 2050, the demand for home-based elder care is set to surge significantly. Urgently needed growth in this sector is limited by workforce shortages and high operational costs, making AI-driven efficiency tools both necessary and timely.
Brandon Owens, Amesite’s VP of Sales, said, “Independently-owned agencies have seen the value of our solution. Additionally, we are seeing significant interest in franchisees of large organizations, who are participating in pilot agreements as a prelude to corporate adoption. We are now transitioning from this successful pilot phase to offering trial usage. This is made possible by our ability to deliver tailored features to employees across different professional silos.”
“Our early users informed our feature design and helped us genuinely meet their needs. Now we are outreaching to enterprises, knowing that we can deliver a 15X ROI. With enterprise pilots in multiple segments, we are confident that our messaging is on target, and we are increasing our marketing to drive more inbound leads,” said Madison Bush, Corporate Operations and Marketing Manager.
Dr. Ann Marie Sastry, CEO of Amesite, said, “As the U.S. population ages, the gap between available and needed staff is growing. We provide real-time support for every person in the enterprise from frontline caregivers to executive teams, helping them to efficiently produce documentation, communicate in challenging circumstances and navigate job challenges. We are committed to transforming this industry and providing the solutions needed to meet this pressing demand.”
Amesite’s AI platform integrates seamlessly into the operational frameworks of home care agencies, enhancing workflow efficiency, and supporting employee retention by lightening administrative burdens. As a result, AI technology enables agencies to make the most of existing resources and extend care to more clients who would otherwise be turned away due to staffing constraints.
