About licensing

We could not check this agency against a Florida license roster, because Florida 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 Florida. Florida requires any individual or organization providing homemaker and companion services to register with AHCA as a Homemaker and Companion Services provider, and that registration does not allow hands-on personal care such as bathing or feeding. Confirm current requirements with the state before you hire. Florida Agency for Health Care Administration (AHCA)
