Five top ideas for starting a healthcare business in the UK

Demand for healthcare in the UK is growing at around twice the rate of the national economy. So, you don’t have to be Richard Branson to realise there are opportunities here for new businesses and healthcare entrepreneurs. The healthcare sector is estimated to potentially provide around 5.6 million jobs by 2020, so the employment opportunities are equally impressive.

 

Who should start a healthcare business?

If you have a background in healthcare or relevant qualifications, then starting your own healthcare business may be something to consider. Using your experience, try to identify areas that may offer the potential for a new idea. Or, you might consider doing something that already exists, only better. Play to your strengths and there is real potential for growth.

To get you started, here are five ideas for healthcare businesses that could work for you.

 

Nutritional consulting

With the importance of a healthy balanced diet an ever-present theme in the media, more and more people are looking for help to eat healthily. Weight loss clinics, nutrition for the elderly, fitness centres and plenty more, are all looking for the right advice when it comes to diet. Your business could be the one to give it to them.

 

Medical and health equipment

New medical equipment is being developed all the time, either to help in the treatment against disease, with mobility or for alternative treatments. There will always be a demand for safety equipment such as evac chairs and hoists, much of which is now required by law.

 

Childbirth business ideas

More and more mothers are choosing natural or home births. New ideas around childbirth are becoming more popular, many of which require specialist training or equipment. It’s a growing field and one that’s open to new ideas.

 

Personal wellness coach

Like a personal trainer but with more of an emphasis on holistic well being rather than just physical fitness. A wellness coach tries to align body and mind, focusing on areas such as diet, stress, achievement and life obstacles. With the right qualifications, you too could become a successful wellness coach.

 

Medical apps

Apps are colossal business, and all you really need is a good idea. An app that focuses on personal health, or looks at it in a new way could be a great way to break into the healthcare industry.
