About licensing
We could not check this agency against a Louisiana license roster, because Louisiana does not publish a usable list of non-medical home care agencies. It is listed because of its public reviews, not because of a license check. Ask the agency for its license or registration number if your state requires one, and ask exactly which services it provides, whether its caregivers are employees, and how they are screened and supervised.
Licensing in Louisiana. Louisiana requires a Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) provider license from the Department of Health, and personal care attendant (PCA) services are one of the licensed service modules; some modules need Facility Need Review approval before licensure. Confirm current requirements with the state before you hire. Louisiana Department of Health, Health Standards Section
