ASSISTED LIVING FACILITY BUSINESS PLAN
Â
I. Executive Summary
Company Description
Hearthstone Residences (name chosen to evoke warmth, home, and stability) is a premium assisted living provider entering the U.S. senior care sector in 2026. We deliver a high-end residential experience combining personalized daily support and holistic wellness. Our facility includes purpose-built private units, a wellness center, and a farm-to-table dining hall. We operate with a trained team of 13.0 FTEs, including licensed nurses and professional chefs, supported by a USD 1,035,000 investment in facility infrastructure and technology. One clear objective: open in 2026 and begin resident intake immediately thereafter.
We focus on daily living assistance, clinical oversight, nutrition-forward dining, and preventive wellness programming to keep residents independent and engaged. We compete on elevated service, chef-led menus, and integrated wellness rather than price. Our target market is older adults and their families in the local U.S. market seeking upscale assisted living. Short-term goals: achieve operational stability and revenue ramp in the first 12–24 months. Long-term goals: expand to a small regional footprint and maintain industry-leading resident satisfaction and net operating margins. Our one-line commitment: premium care, real food, measurable wellbeing.

Problem
Many seniors aged 75 and older need daily living help but do not require nursing-home medical oversight; current options force families into independent living with inadequate support or into costly institutional care.
This gap causes caregiver burnout, social isolation, poor nutrition, increased falls and emergencies, and reduced family visibility into daily care; these outcomes drive higher long-term costs and worse senior health.
Our premium assisted living launch in 2026 addresses this unmet need with a purpose-built facility staffed by 13.0 FTEs, backed by USD 1,035,000 in infrastructure and technology, and targeting a first-year revenue of USD 2,430,000.
Â
Solution
We close the care gap for seniors 75+ by offering upscale assisted living that pairs professional medication management and personal care with vibrant social programs, farm-to-table dining, tailored fitness, and smart-home safety. This reduces safety risks and isolation for residents and lowers stress for adult children aged 45–65 who currently manage care remotely.
Launch 2026 target: accommodate 360 residency unit months and deliver 300 care service packages to validate demand and unit economics.
Â
Mission Statement
We provide an elevated living experience that fosters independence, holistic wellness, and vibrant social connection for seniors. We deliver peace of mind to families through transparent communication and compassionate, high-quality care. We redefine assisted living by integrating superior nutrition, innovative technology, and personalized support so residents thrive and families feel confident. We aim to achieve a 10.05 percent return on equity while maintaining the highest standards of resident service.
