I agree that setting up elderly care home is a lucrative business. In my place, the population is aging and there are shortages of elderly homes. We have elderly homes run by NGOs or the government, but the waiting time to go there is very long. Private elderly home is in high demand. But to run this business, you have to be a compassionate person, be patient and work long hours.
It is very good business but it required a lot of patience and expertise. Every individual can't do this. Nowadays sad stories of homes as people send their parents in old houses. Till date we are far away from this shameful act.
Yes, establishing a business that caters to the needs of senior citizens would be a smart decision, especially if it is situated in an area where there is a significant population of elderly individuals who do not have anyone to look after them. However, starting such a business would entail a considerable amount of capital.
There is no bad business as long as your intention is pure which is to help the people in the community where you first established your business. Just do the right planning and be kind to the people in the community.
An elderly care business is a good one to venture into. It truly requires you to be skilled on how to care for the elderly. It also requires you to have a good space, equipments and all materials necessary for a good home for them. Somewhere they will be comfortable and have fun in their old age.
You also need medical experts and medical equipments since most elderly people have several conditions that need to be managed. So a nurse and pharmacists will be some of the stuff you hire.
