A Residential Senior Care Home - also known as an RCFE (Residential Care Facility for the Elderly) - is a licensed, home-based business where you provide a safe, nurturing environment for a small group of seniors. Room, meals, and personal care. No hospital. No medical degree. Just a meaningful business you can run from a home you already own - or one you invest in.
California has one of the highest demands for residential senior care in the country, and the licensing pathway is clear for those with the right guidance.

YOUR MENTORS
Meet Your Mentors
Amanda & Boris Palomino
Amanda and Boris didn't start out as experts. They started out exactly where you are - with a desire to build something meaningful and no clear roadmap to get there. Over 10 years of operating licensed Residential Care Facilities in California, they learned what works, what doesn't, and what most people get catastrophically wrong.
Today they're active RCFE operators, official members of the RCFE Association, and the mentors they wish they'd had from day one.

COMMON QUESTIONS
Frequently Asked Questions
What exactly is a residential senior care home?
A residential senior care home - formally called an RCFE, or Residential Care Facility for the Elderly - is a licensed, home-based business where you provide housing, meals, and personal care for a small group of seniors (typically 6 or fewer). It's not a hospital or nursing home. It's a warm, comfortable living environment that families trust for their loved ones - and a legitimate, regulated business with real income potential.
Do I need prior experience in senior care to join?
No prior experience is required. Whether you're brand new to the industry or already working in senior care, this program gives you the complete knowledge, tools, and support to launch and operate your facility successfully.
How long does it take to open a facility after joining?
Timelines vary depending on the licensing process and how quickly you take action. With structured guidance, many students see meaningful progress within a few months and open their facilities within a year.
Can I do this while I still have a full-time job?
Yes. The program is designed to be flexible. Many students start while working full-time and transition into senior care ownership on their own schedule.
What kind of support will I receive?
Accepted students receive personalized 1-on-1 coaching directly with Amanda and Boris — including access to their 10+ years of real-world expertise, the step-by-step roadmap, and hands-on guidance from licensing through your first residents. Because of the depth of support involved, spots are limited and require an application.
Is this program only for California?
The program is currently focused on California's RCFE licensing process, regulations, and market. If you're based in California or planning to operate there, this program is built specifically for you.
