As the elderly population continues to increase, the need for
suitable housing will continue to rise as well. This handbook is
designed to help individuals and families determine the feasibility
of starting a small home business providing residential home
services for one or more elderly persons. Persons interested in
starting a business of this type will find this unique book a
goldmine of important information. Residential Care Services for
the Elderly is a valuable decision-making tool which helps readers
determine if this type of business venture is appropriate and, if
so, how to start and maintain a residential care service for the
elderly. Thorough coverage of background and implementation details
provides potential operators with a rationale and necessary
information. Numerous self-assessment and resource inventories in
this practical handbook will guide readers in determining their
areas of interests and competencies. Opportunities for networking
among state licensing/standards agencies, funding agencies, and a
listing of elder care organizations and advocacy groups adds value
to this time-saving resource, ensuring a quicker and more likely
success. Case studies, detailed guides, and the discussion of
positive and negative aspects of being the owner of a small
residential care business, based on interviews with people
currently running elder care residential services, are also
included. All aspects of business operations are covered in
Residential Care Services for the Elderly, including sources of
funding and potential incomes; emotional and financial cost/benefit
factors; parameters of organizing the business including personnel,
respite care workers, need for registered nurses, and food service;
special needs of clients; details of financial plans with outlines
and sample forms; and variables of success and failure. Graduate
and undergraduate students taking classes in regard to
gerontological business and long-term care related alternatives
will also find this statistic-filled handbook a useful reference.
