Licensed in-home care in Florence, SC: how to compare agencies

65 in-home care agencies serving Florence, SC hold an active South Carolina In-Home Care Provider license, as listed in the South Carolina Department of Public Health public roster dated October 28, 2026. They are shown in alphabetical order. We do not rank them, because no fair public quality data exists for in-home care agencies and we will not invent a score.

In-home care means non-medical help that lets an older adult keep living at home: bathing and dressing, meals, housekeeping, errands, medication reminders and company. It is usually paid for privately, with long-term care insurance, a Medicaid program or VA benefits, not by Medicare. Compare at least three agencies, and ask each whether caregivers are employees, how they are screened, who supervises them, the minimum hours and the hourly rate.

In South Carolina, the median rate for in-home care is $31 an hour, about $2,719 a month for 20 hours a week (CareScout 2025).

The 65 agencies on this list are based in 4 ZIP codes; the busiest are 29501 (43 agencies), 29505 (14 agencies) and 29506 (7 agencies). If Florence has too few choices for your needs, the closest other cities we list are Timmonsville (5 agencies, about 9 miles away), Darlington (10 agencies, about 10 miles away) and Hartsville (5 agencies, about 17 miles away).

Planning care in Florence

Florence has a humid subtropical climate with very hot, humid summers, mild winters and rare extended freezes, so heat safety is the main seasonal concern.

The Pee Dee Regional Transportation Authority provides bus service, free to ride since August 2025. Major medical visits cluster downtown near McLeod Regional Medical Center.

Questions Florence families ask

How many licensed in-home care agencies are there in Florence?

The state roster dated October 28, 2026 lists 65 agencies in Florence with an active South Carolina license. Agencies based in nearby towns may also serve Florence.

How do I choose an in-home care agency in Florence?

Call at least three. Ask whether caregivers are employees or independent contractors, how they are screened and supervised, the minimum hours and the hourly rate, and what happens when a caregiver is sick. Ask for a written care plan. Our guide to how to check an agency has the full list.

Why are the agencies not ranked?

Medicare rates home health agencies and hospices, so we rank those. There are no public quality ratings for non-medical in-home care, so these agencies are listed A-Z with their state license, and we do not rank or score them.

How do families pay for in-home care in Florence?

Most pay privately, by the hour. Long-term care insurance, Medicaid waivers and VA benefits can help with bathing help, meals, housekeeping or companionship.

What does "licensed" mean?

The agency holds a license from the state health department. Licensing sets minimum standards and allows the state to inspect and act on complaints, but it does not rate how good the care is.
