Always Best Care Appoints CFO Shontz for Growth

ROCKLIN, Calif., Sept. 29, 2026 /CourierPR/ -- Always Best Care Senior Services, a leading provider of non-medical in-home care and senior living referral services with over 295 independently owned and operated locations across the United States and Canada, has appointed Jason Shontz as its new Chief Financial Officer (CFO). The appointment comes as the company enters its next phase of growth in partnership with NexPhase Capital. Shontz, a CPA with nearly two decades of financial leadership experience, joins Always Best Care from The Joint Corp., a publicly traded chiropractic franchisor with over 1,000 locations nationwide.

At The Joint Corp., Shontz served as Vice President of Finance, where he led financial planning and analysis, supported investor relations, and guided capital allocation decisions. He also played a key role in shaping unit economics, long-range planning, and the refranchising of corporate-owned clinics. His experience at The Joint Corp. provided him with a comprehensive understanding of the financial intricacies of a publicly traded company, as well as the challenges and opportunities associated with the refranchising of corporate-owned assets.

Shontz’s appointment to Always Best Care is significant for several reasons. Firstly, it underscores the company’s commitment to financial stability and growth, a critical aspect of its ongoing expansion. Secondly, Shontz’s personal connection to the company’s services, stemming from his father’s reliance on non-medical in-home care, adds a personal dimension to the leadership team. This connection highlights the importance of the services Always Best Care provides and the potential impact on families.

For Shontz, the move to Always Best Care also carries a personal connection. His father, who turns 90 this year, relies on non-medical in-home care for both practical support and companionship. This personal experience is a major part of what drew Shontz to Always Best Care. He understands the essential role that in-home care plays in maintaining independence and quality of life for seniors and their families.

As CFO, Shontz will be responsible for supporting franchise development, strengthening franchisee profitability, and building the financial tools and insights necessary to support continued expansion. His experience and expertise will be invaluable as Always Best Care navigates its next phase of growth.

Founded in 1996, Always Best Care Senior Services is one of North America’s leading senior care franchise organizations, providing non-medical in-home care, senior living referral services, and skilled home health services in select markets. The company supports families through a network of over 115 franchisees operating 295 independently owned and operated locations across the United States and Canada, helping thousands of seniors maintain their independence, dignity, and quality of life each year.

In summary, the appointment of Jason Shontz as Chief Financial Officer at Always Best Care represents a strategic move to support franchisee profitability and the company’s growth. His extensive experience and personal connection to the company’s services underscore the importance of non-medical in-home care and highlight Always Best Care’s commitment to its mission of providing essential support to seniors and their families.
