Healthcare Entrepreneur and Experienced Business Leader Opens Newest Synergy Homecare Location in Greater Philadelphia

Husband-and-Wife Duo Open Cinnaminson-based Agency After Previous Success Launching Mobile Wound Care Company

October 05, 2026 // Franchising.com // Tempe, Ariz. – SYNERGY® HomeCare, the nation’s fastest-growing home care franchise, an Entrepreneur 500 ranked enterprise and a Top 50 Franchise according to Franchise Business Review, has announced its newest location in the greater Philadelphia area, SYNERGY HomeCare in Cinnaminson.

The company is led by the husband-and-wife duo of John and Melissa Fish, experienced healthcare entrepreneurs who previously launched a successful multi-state, mobile wound care company. After years of helping patients who struggled to access traditional care, combined with a personal experience within John’s family, the two recognized an opportunity to expand the non-medical in-home care services available to residents throughout South Jersey and Philadelphia.

Headquartered at 101 Route 130 Madison Building Suite 306 in Cinnaminson, John, Melissa, and their team of compassionate caregivers will assist residents throughout Camden, Cinnaminson, Maple Shade, Mount Laurel, Palmyra, and Pennsauken with a wide variety of non-medical, in-home care services, from companion care to personal care and respite care.

John’s unique insights into New Jersey’s healthcare industry allowed him to witness the growing demand for these in-home services, particularly among Baby Boomers. U.S. Census statistics show that 10,000 Baby Boomers are turning 65 every day and that by 2030, there will be more than 70 million people over 65. According to the AARP, over 80% of this demographic report wanting to remain in their own homes for as long as possible.

Following his graduation from La Salle University with a bachelor’s degree in business administration and finance, John entered the healthcare industry. Though he began his healthcare career as a business development manager, he quickly realized his entrepreneurial ability and launched his own mobile wound care medical company. Originally founded in Atlanta, John grew the business to over 180 employees, running hundreds of complex wound care mobile visits every week across multiple states. That experience provided John with the perfect skill set to transition into non-medical in-home care.

“The feeling of helping people who can’t easily take care of themselves or get out of their home is what drove my first company, and I believe that same feeling will now drive the work we do with SYNERGY HomeCare,” said John. “We genuinely enjoy working in a position where we can make a real impact on the lives of those we serve, and that gratification motivated me to further commit myself to service by joining the home care industry.”

The Fishes’ decision to launch a home care agency was also influenced by John’s own family experiences. His mother was an in-home primary care provider, originally assisting a family friend, and then John’s grandmother as she aged. Though John appreciated the work his mother was doing, he saw the toll it took on her as she balanced her own life with her care responsibilities. He knew that his mother wasn’t alone in her situation, which motivated him to provide a solution for the thousands of families experiencing something similar.

“Already, we don’t have enough care providers to support the number of people who need help now, and that older age group is only getting bigger every day,” said John. “We have an opportunity to help address that growing divide. Our philosophy is simple: be your best even when no one can see you. We’ll provide care driven by personal touch, constant communication, and genuine investment so our clients and their families always know that we’ll be there for them when they need us.”

That philosophy will guide the care provided by John and Melissa’s team, as they help nearby residents maintain their independence and quality of life in the comfort of their own homes. The Fishes’ custom care plans can include assistance with cooking, shopping, running errands, doing light housekeeping, or going for walks. Their services will also extend to those who require personal care, such as help with bathing, dressing, or using the toilet.

SYNERGY HomeCare in Cinnaminson is currently looking to add to its team of diverse caregivers. While licensed Certified Nursing Assistants (CNAs) are ideal candidates, John and Melissa will provide training and certification to anyone looking to enter the field of caregiving. Caring, compassionate professionals with a reverence for older adults are invited to apply by visiting their website or calling (856) 425-2080.

SYNERGY HomeCare offers competitive hourly rates in addition to flexible shifts perfect for both college students or recent graduates as well as people who are retired and looking to stay active.
