    My sister and I are both RN's in Maine. We are interested in opening, owning and running an small alzheimer's nursing home (maybe 10 patients.) We would love to provide top quality care and make a good living. Anybody done this or have any experience with the success of opening this type of facility?

    I am a Student at the University of Phoenix getting my Bachelors degree in Health Care Administration. I am interested when its all said and done in opening up my own facility for Alzheimers patients. I have worked with Alzheimers patients in the past but not solely in a Alzheimers unit just in nursing homes that I have worked at. I was wondering what the average square footage is best and how many patients is acceptable in one facility. I have tried looking on the internet but am not finding anything that will work for my paper. Any Suggestions?
