Hi William,
I work in private pay senior living which includes independent living, assisted living and memory care in Texas and Utah. I have ran four communities myself (in Texas) and learned a lot. I do know California has the most stringent regulations. Here's a couple of links to get you started if your focus is the elderly.

Oftentimes, people get skilled nursing confused with senior living including the state auditors/surveyors. Knowing the difference is key as an owner/operator to better guide your business decisions. Senior living also falls under "long term care" but most of these buildings are private pay. The business itself is very complex - think apartment building with a restaurant, activities, 24/7 care staff, maintenance and housekeeping. I typical 80-unit building can have up to 50 team members under 7 departments. Margins during covid were slim due to labor/staffing issues and inflation.
As far as housing for pregnant women, I am not educated on that topic.
Let me know if you have any questions.
Shilpa
