Protect the continuity of assisted living facilities operations.
A continuity plan should look beyond physical repairs. For assisted living facilities, recovery can depend on resident housing, care, medication support, dining, activities, employees, visitors, transportation, property, technology, and continuous services, as well as timely access to people, data, equipment, suppliers, utilities, and customers.
Recovery dependencies to map
- Resident relocation, family communication, staffing, and continuity of care
- Backup power, water, food, medication, technology, and transportation
- Regulatory, vendor, property-restoration, and reopening coordination
Values and timelines to test
- Buildings, contents, medical and kitchen equipment, vehicles, and improvements
- Beds, occupancy, resident revenue, payroll, and continuing expenses
- Technology, records, backup power, utilities, and vendor dependencies
Questions to resolve
- Professional care allegations treated as premises liability
- Abuse, cyber, employment, governance, or transport exposures overlooked
- Recovery plans that do not protect residents continuously
Frequently asked questions
Why can the recovery period exceed the repair period?
Permitting, equipment lead time, installation, testing, supplier delays, staffing, customer communication, and the return to normal revenue can continue after physical repairs are complete.
What should assisted living facilities review after a major change?
Locations, operations, values, payroll, vehicles, contracts, vendors, revenue, and controls should be revisited when the business changes materially rather than waiting automatically for renewal.
