Is it possible to open a home for the elderly? I'd like to open a four star home for elderly people. It would house about 15 people. It wouldn't necessarily target the really really old, disabled people, who can't move, but would aim more towards the people who are in their 70s, 80, who can still funciton, but would like a place to live.

Do you know anything about this? Is this even possible? And what credentials would I need?

Hmm. I've done some work in this field.

I'd advise checking out RetirementHomes.com to learn more about the different types of Senior Care as a jumping off point.

That's interesting,.....why do you want to do that. Is is becuase you care passionatly about old folks or are you intrested in running your own business?

I absolutely love the elderly. I think that they're filled with knoweledge and wisdom. I figured, why not create a career out of it?
