Questions to ask when you tour

1. 1

   Current occupancy and waitlist

   With only 8 licensed beds, ask how many are currently filled and whether there is a waitlist or typical wait time.

2. 2

   Staffing levels on each shift

   Ask how many staff are on site during daytime, evening, and overnight hours, and whether any shifts are covered by a single caregiver.

3. 3

   Services included in the base rate

   Type B licenses cover residents who need more than minimal assistance — ask exactly which daily care tasks are included and what triggers an additional charge.

4. 4

   What happens if care needs increase

   With 8 beds and no affiliated larger facility, ask the process if a resident's needs eventually exceed what a Type B license permits.

5. 5

   Owner's on-site presence

   With no management company listed, ask how often Simon Koithara is physically present and who is the designated decision-maker when he is not on site.
