Introduction
St. Dismas Medical Centre is a metropolitan not-for-profit organization that is planning
to advance to an assisted living facility to help the old aged people get the necessary medical
help as well as assistance in leading their life. The initial approximation of the probable return on
investment on the proposed living facility indicates that the idea of setting up of such a facility
will be beneficial for St. Dismas as the inpatient population was declining slowly and steadily.
Furthermore, the facility project that is proposed is expected to meet the premeditated
inventiveness of growing a business by improving the count of referrals to different outpatient
therapy processes. The strategic objective of this program is to reinforce the focus on the
reimbursable precautionary wellness processes for a better geriatric populace. In the following
paragraphs, the goals and the objectives of undertaking the St. Dismas Facility project is
discussed. The scope statement of the facility project is discussed. A realistic schedule for
implementation of the St. Dismas Facility project is prepared. All the works are set to be
completed within April 2022 so that the facility can be opened by June 2020.
1. Project Goals and Objectives
The St. Dismas Facility project is proposed in relation to identifying future opportunities
for the St. Dismas. The need for identifying the future opportunities arose mainly because there
have been a steady decline in the admission to the inpatient and the outpatient admission.
Therefore, bringing in a steady yet a meaningful change in the working process of St. Dismas
have become a necessity. The ROI of the proposed project is calculated and is found to be
positive. Apart from that a competitive analysis of the proposed business idea is completed
which indicate that the proposed project has the capability of yielding high profit. The facility is

proposed to be set up as a for-profit secondary of a health center that has the capability of
generating profit. The goals and the intentions of the proposed St. Dismas Facility project are
indicated in the subsequent section.
1.1. Project Goals
The goal of the proposed St. Dismas Facility project is to set up an assisted living project
with 100 units. Out of the proposed 100 units, 15 to 30 units will be categorized as intense
assisted units while the rest are units that need light assistance. The objective of the proposed
project is to improve the patients’ referrals mainly for the outpatient services. The proposed
facility Project will help St. Dismas in strengthening the attention on designing programs that
can be a great help to old people in the geriatric populace.
The long term goal of the St. Dismas Facility project is to improve the overall census of
the inpatient unit of the hospital (which is currently declining at a steady rate). This could be
achieved by developing a place where people could peacefully age till they are in requirement of
hospitalization. With the help of the proposed project, the aged people could easily get the
needed help with the hospitalization and the facility is connected to the main hospital.
1.2. Project Objectives
The main objectives of the proposed St. Dismas Facility project are indicated as follows-
 To estimate the cost of completion of the project and the time necessary for
project completion
 To identify the ROI and the payback time of the proposed facility project
