FirstLight Home Care, a leading national provider of non-medical home care, has been named to the Entrepreneur Franchise 500® list for 2019. This is the eighth consecutive year the company has earned the distinction.

"To consistently make this prestigious list highlights our long-term commitment to service and excellence," said Jeff Bevis, co-founder and CEO of FirstLight Home Care. "Everyone who is part of the FirstLight team, whether they are franchise owners or based in the home office, deserves credit for this achievement, which is ultimately the result of the deep commitment we make to every single client we serve."

The 40^th annual Franchise 500® compiles outstanding franchises from across all industries into what is considered one of the most reliable and comprehensive rankings in the franchise industry. It is based on financial and brand strength, support, growth rate, stability and size.

FirstLight serves seniors, adults with disabilities, new mothers, veterans, those recovering from surgery and other adults in need of assistance. The company's caregivers help with many needs – from personal hygiene and household duties such as cooking, cleaning and running errands to mobility assistance and dementia care.

The news comes after FirstLight was ranked No. 30 in the list of Top 200 franchise opportunities by Franchise Business Review for 2019, a ranking based on franchisee satisfaction and performance. FirstLight was also named for the second straight year to the Franchise Times Fast & Serious list, an annual ranking based on growth. FirstLight reported 20.1 percent sales growth in 2018.

Other recent accolades include making the Inc. 5000 list of fastest-growing, privately held companies, the Franchise Times Top 200+ of the 500 largest franchise companies and Franchise Business Review's Top 100 Franchises for Innovation and Top Franchises for Veterans lists.
