Assisted living facility?

[Ken Williams]

I do not know much about assisted living or nursing homes. I have a colleague that wants to go in and develop an assisted living community.

I need to know what requirements we would need to build and run an assisted living community including:

-Licensing requirements
-building requirements
-What grants, perks, waivers can be absorbed
-facility requirements
-state/federal requirements
-safety issues/requirements
-permit requirements

And anything else that would be geared toward an assisted living facility.

Where can I find this info out? To be honest I do not know where to begin.

If anyone owns a facility or has first hand experience, I would really like to talk to you. Please PM me if this is the case. I would make it worth your while somehow..

Thanks
