Here is an article from the Huffington Post that discusses how unprepared nursing homes are in terms of their disaster plans (unreliable transportation contracts, lack of collaboration with local emergency management, lack of contingencies for residents who develope health problems, etc.). From the article it appears most facilities have an emergency plan "on paper" that meets federal requirements, but don't really have everything in place to truly be prepared in the event of an emergency. The article is actually pretty good in terms of describing a need in the market that needs to be met. If you live in a city with hundreds of nursing homes you could provide several of them all the planning, training, serve as the coordinator to local emergency management, etc. You could help facilities not just meet federal regulations but truly be prepared to ensure the safety of their residents. How many facilities would be willing to pay for the service is a big question.
