Using FP&A to Increase Profitability

Senior living facilities are under compounding pressure — staffing shortages, agency cost escalation, rising costs per resident day, and ongoing inflation — all while managing multiple locations with spreadsheet-based planning that can't keep up. This guide outlines five practical ways senior living finance leaders can use smarter FP&A to increase profitability, improve census, and build a more operationally resilient community.

Learn how to:

• Use scenario planning to model the financial impact of tight labour markets, agency costs, overtime, and unpredictable operational events.
• Enable collaboration across facilities so every building administrator works from a consistent, single source of data.
• Build accurate revenue planning by connecting resident care requirements, billing rates, and staff hours to financial forecasts.
• Grow census strategically with planning tools that optimise occupancy, track referral sources, and model the financial impact of expansion.
• Leverage technology to centralise workflows, automate reporting, and gain real-time visibility into per-resident day costs, occupancy, and staffing.

In senior living, profitability and quality of care go hand in hand — and both depend on better planning. Download this guide to take the steps that will make your community more financially resilient and operationally efficient.
