Licensing requirements vary by state but generally include:
Residential Care Facility License (specific to board and care or assisted living)
Local Business License & Permits
Health & Safety Inspections
Staff Background Checks & Training Certifications

No, prior healthcare experience is not required to become a successful operator. Many owners come from business or investment backgrounds. However, you must hire qualified caregivers and meet state staffing requirements. AP Advisors provide step-by-step guidance so even first-time owners can confidently open and manage their facilities.
The ideal property is a single-family home (or similar residential structure) that can be modified to meet state safety and accessibility requirements. It should have:
Adequate bedrooms and bathrooms for residents
Space for common areas and dining
Accessibility features (or the ability to add them)
Assisted Partners® Advisors help you assess properties or modify existing homes to meet all licensing and operational standards.
