FirstLight Home Care Hits the Road to Celebrate 300 Locations

FirstLight Home Care recently announced an uplifting endeavor as they celebrate a remarkable milestone of surpassing 300 locations across the United States. To mark this achievement, the company has unveiled the Best Days Tour, a cross-country journey spearheaded by President and CEO Glee McAnanly. This initiative aims to honor the franchise owners, their dedicated teams, and the caregivers who are instrumental in supporting communities with high-quality home care services.

The initiative comes at a crucial juncture where the need for home care is ever-growing. In recent years, the number of Americans providing ongoing care for loved ones has surged to 63 million, marking an increase of nearly 20 million in just a decade. As families increasingly seek the aid of professional caregivers, many local heroes at FirstLight have stepped up to meet this essential need within their communities.

Traveling in a custom-branded FirstLight RV, McAnanly will journey to various franchise locations, engaging directly with franchise owners and their teams. This tour not only aims to celebrate successes but also to hear stories that matter—from the struggles to the triumphs that come with building a FirstLight Home Care business. Along the way, McAnanly will take the time to recognize significant milestones such as anniversaries and expansions, expressing gratitude to those who have fueled the company's growth and mission.

The tour commenced on October 26th with an inspiring kickoff event held at Portland Head Light in Cape Elizabeth, Maine. The initial leg of the trip will focus on the East Coast this fall, with plans for additional stops throughout the United States in 2027. “We didn’t want to celebrate 300 locations from a conference room. We wanted to go to the people who got us here,” McAnanly shared, emphasizing the importance of the relationships built within the FirstLight family.

This year has indeed been a standout for FirstLight, as the company is not just expanding its physical presence; it is also recognized on platforms like Entrepreneur magazine’s lists of Top 100 Fastest-Growing Franchises and Top 10 Senior Care Franchises for 2026. Such accolades reflect not only the growth of FirstLight’s network but also the invaluable contributions of franchise owners and caregivers who work tirelessly to support families across the nation.

Throughout the Best Days Tour, FirstLight plans to document and share the experiences, challenges, and victories of franchise owners, caregivers, and clients via local media outlets and social media platforms. This transparency offers an authentic glimpse into the culture that shapes the organization and underlines its continued success.

As demand for in-home care persists, the Best Days Tour serves as a powerful reminder of the significance behind FirstLight’s growth—the irreplaceable people dedicated to ensuring that every client enjoys their best day, every day.
