There are more than a few ways to show up and make an impact, so in this episode I’ll give you an overview so you can find the way that speaks to you and the business you want to create. If you’re already serving in a way that you don’t love, then you’re not showing up to do your best work and it’s totally okay to pivot to a community service that lights you up.

Traditional licensed assisted living: Think residential assisted living for the aged with generally less than 15 residents. That’s not the same as an assisted living facility, which often has hundreds of residents. This is the model that most people get stuck on, but that’s not the only way to serve your community.

Licensed Group Homes: Habilitation type homes for DD or mental health individuals.

Community Hab: Everything outside of a licensed residential or licensed group home. This can be meal services, employment services, home modification, there are really tons of different options. Get curious and see what’s out there.

When I learned about all the different options out there, my mind was blown.

Welcome back.

I'm so glad you're here with me.

Today.

We are gonna be digging into a topic that is needed because I hear time and time and

time again from men and women just like you, who do not understand that there are

so many different types of care out there.

They think that coming into this industry, you either just.

like the senior, the age, or you serve like mental health, or you're

serving individuals who are like in rehab or something like that.

there are so many other options and I wanna talk to you.

Not just like, okay, it's this care and this care and this.

I'm talking to more of the impact and how you wanna show up and how

you wanna make that impact, right?

Because each person has their own preference, and I wanna dig into that.

So the title is Different types of care, so let's get in.

First off, I wanna say before we get into all of that, you get to create

the business and care that you want and you desire, and you get to serve the

clientele that you want to serve, period.

It's not about what I wanna do.

It's not about what the person next to you wants to do.

It's about what you wanna do and how you wanna show up and how you want to serve.

So that's what I'm going to start with today, and I want to talk about.

Traditional licensed assisted living, and I want to kind of

just touch on that a little bit.

So a lot of times when people are getting into this industry,

they talk about the baby boomers.

There's so many baby boomers and there's such a need for

residential assisted living.

Licensed assisted living, and.

It is a need and go ahead and break into the industry.

And that's how you're gonna nail it.

And let me also say this is a $87 billion industry as of 2021, and it's

expecting a growth of 5.48% from 2020.

To 2030.

When people hear that, their eyes just bounce out of their head,

but they are stuck on traditional assisted living and their only

focus is the baby boomer industry.

The seniors, the aged.

I also wanna state that a licensed residential assisted

living versus assisted living facility are two different things.

Okay?

One, the residential assisted living home is going to be a smaller, you

know, two to 13 residents, and a assisted living facility is anywhere

from like 40 to 300 res residents.

It could be huge, right?

More expensive.

People just think of that.

They think of that and that ain't it, baby, That ain't it.

That is not everything.

Okay.

And again, this.

Episode is not about pinpointing exactly what types of care,

cuz there is a lot of 'em.

I have a training in my program, the startup Provider program.

It's a hybrid group coaching program and in there there is a training

called 12 plus types of care and I probably need to go in and add

to it cuz there's so much more.

But that's where I like really drill down and go.

. But I want you guys to understand that there's the residential

side of things where there's the license assisted living home.

Then there is group homes, right?

Where you might have heard Facilities being called group homes.

You may have heard of that.

Instead of like LF or alh, you might be hearing group home.

People use that term very, very loosely.

And then there's community have, and I define community have as

everything that's outside of a licensed residential or licensed group home.

Okay.

Those are the other services.

There are so many of them.

This is why I want to give you so much freedom in knowing that you are able

to start the business in care that you want and you desire, and you are able

to show up and make impact in that way because there's so many options now.

I've seen it.

People will get started in this business, not wanna work with seniors.

Think that's the only way they're working with seniors and they.

, Okay.

Or people could jump into this business.

They're working with youth.

They think that's the only way they wanna work with adults, with DD or whatever.

They're not quite sure how to get started.

They don't understand anything, so they're stuck serving a population.

They're making impact, not doing their best job because they really don't wanna

be there when they can really pivot.

And serve the population that they really want to serve.

Okay, so those are the things that I want to talk with you about today.

If you are strong on serving people in a licensed residential setting.

Great.

Like let's look at licensed residential assisted living, which I also

call traditional assisted living.

Or if you're looking at more of the, rehabilitative side of things,

let's look at more of a group home.

But we need to focus on who you are wanting to serve, right?

You need to nail that down.

If you have experience working with seniors and you want to continue

working with seniors, great.

Like do that.

There's so many different options out there to provide care.

Now, if you have a history of working with DD individuals or mental health

individuals and you want to continue working with those individuals, great,

but if you don't and you want to pivot, Then let's start pivoting so you feel

more aligned with how you are showing up and how you are making impact.

Y'all.

When I tell you I was shook to my core when I learned of all of the

different services that you can provide, I was like, Wait a minute.

This changes the whole game.

The whole game.

. When I learned of all of the different options out there, I was like, Wait, what?

I mean from daily living skills to employment services, to

meals, to transportation, to home modification, to coordination of care.

Just so many different services out there.

So I just wanted to give you that little piece before I pivot

and I talk about the client.

. So with serving the clientele that you choose, you might be like, Well,

Ariana, I don't really know who I can serve, so let's talk about that.

Right now, there are youth care, right?

You can provide services to youth, which I'm saying is 17 and under,

and then within that you can get a little bit more specific.

You can serve the aged out individuals.

Then there are the adults, and then that's what we're looking

at of like dd We're looking at.

Individuals with mental health challenges, and then we're looking

at the age, which is seniors.

So those are your clientele that you can really serve.

And again, it's important to know your limit.

It's important to know your boundaries, and I want to make this point.

We may want to be at a certain spot providing a certain service that we see

or we've discovered, but I want you to know that some of these services, yes,

they are out there and available, but some of them have requirements and you

have to meet said requirements before you can even provide the service.

So I want you to know that also, I will use myself as example.

When I first started, I started with group home.

I was providing group home services to DD clientele, and then from

there I added services to it.

I did not start out the gate with a whole bunch of services

right when I was, a baby agency.

I did not do that.

I started with one service and then I added them on, and before that I

was a foster parent and so I didn't even know about this type of care.

So it doesn't matter where you are at on the spectrum, it doesn't matter

where you are at as far as getting started, or you may already be started

and you are wanting to add services.

You may be wanting to pivot, you may be wanting to do some different things, and

just know that you have freedom to do that, and you have options and you just

have to look out there a little bit more.

Join a community, you know what I mean?

Like.

Be curious, and that's what this episode really is for, is to help with that

curiosity and just know that there are options out there for you and you are able

to make that impact in a way that you want and you desire, and you are able to create

that business and care that you want.

And it, it has nothing to do with anybody else but.

What you wanna do and who you wanna serve and how you want to make impact.

So that is it for this episode, and I will see you in the next one.
