BEVERLY HILLS, Calif., October 18, 2026. Acensus, a specialty growth firm for home-based care agencies, today published four free guides for agency owners and operators. The guides cover:
- how census grows stage by stage
- why the first response decides which agency a family chooses
- how private duty nursing agencies win cases while recruiting nurses
- what to ask before hiring any growth partner
They are available at acensushq.com/guides.
The guides are built on the Census Chain, Acensus's six-stage framework for how a family moves from first inquiry to start of care: demand, inquiry, first response, follow-up, start of care and staying on census. Each guide uses figures from Acensus client engagements, with every case documented at acensushq.com/results.
"Most agencies don't have a demand problem. They lose families after the phone rings, or they can't staff the hours once a family says yes," said Sam Tofighi, founder and principal of Acensus. "We wrote these guides so any owner can find where their own agency is leaking, whether or not they ever work with us."
The four guides are:
- The Census Chain: How Home-Based Care Agencies Grow Census, Stage by Stage: acensushq.com/guides/how-to-grow-home-care-census
- Speed to Lead in Home Care: Why the First Response Decides Who Starts Care: acensushq.com/guides/home-care-speed-to-lead
- Private Duty Nursing Agency Growth: acensushq.com/guides/private-duty-nursing-agency-growth
