I was very skeptical concerning the Policies and Procedures being within guidlines for the state I live in. The team reassured that Certified Homecare Consulting follows all rules and regulations when writing the policies and procedures. I called several times because I was nervous but overall when I received the package; I screamed and fell in love with the colors, the font and most important the Policies and Procedures. Will be contact for services.

I cannot say enough great things about my experience with Certified Homecare Consulting. From start to finish, they guided me through every step of the home care licensing process with professionalism, expertise, and unwavering support. CA took a very long time and I was supported and reassured the entire way.

Their team was incredibly knowledgeable, from Roxanne in the licensing department to everyone that assisted me along the way. They made what could have been an overwhelming process, feel manageable and even empowering. They were always responsive to my questions, provided clear direction, and ensured I had all the necessary documentation and training materials to meet compliance requirements.

Thanks to their guidance, I felt confident and well-prepared during every phase of the process. I’m now fully licensed and ready to start taking clients— something I truly couldn’t have achieved without their help.

If you’re looking for a dependable, experienced, and supportive partner to help you get licensed for your home care agency, I highly recommend Certified Homecare Consulting. They truly go above and beyond!

From our very first conversation, Steve was knowledgeable, professional, and genuinely committed to helping me navigate the complex process of launching a home healthcare agency.

Francineglide V.

If it weren’t for Susan G., I likely would have canceled my contract—I initially did not feel supported. However, everything changed for the better once Susan was assigned to us. Her expertise, responsiveness, and genuine commitment made a world of difference.

I also had the pleasure of working with Starsha M., whose email communication was consistently professional and courteous. When she joined Susan for a mock survey, the experience was truly eye-opening. Starsha took the time to explain everything thoroughly and with great patience. Her calm and reassuring demeanor was incredibly helpful throughout the process.

Together, Susan and Starsha make an outstanding team—knowledgeable, supportive, and a true asset to this consulting firm. If you’re considering working with them, I highly recommend requesting to work with both of these incredible professionals.

Susan was wonderful to work with today. We gained so much knowledge through her expertise. She walked us through the survey process step by step. I am much more prepared than I was yesterday. Thankful that she will “hold our hand” for the next few months as we continue to move towards Medicare certification. She has been a delightful person to work with- she instills confidence and guides with a wealth of wisdom from experience. I cannot recommend her enough!!! Today was a positive day and I feel like the little engine that could… “I think I can… I know I can.” A million thanks for your help.

One day I was in the dark, I tried to look for a light, it turned out that the light I found was a light that would illuminate my life for the rest of my life.
I called a number I didn’t recognize. The number is CHC far away in the East of America, while I was in the West.
A gentle woman answered the phone, from her voice I was sure she was a wise woman, she is Amy Wise from CHC. Since then every night there is no doubt like I get medicine from that sound, like a bright bright light. I don’t want to lose that light. From the beginning of our conversation, I decided that I am sure After darkness there will be light to shine in my life. It was proven… Last week that light became a reality lamp. That the team from CHC didn’t work hard BUT WORKED SMART!!, creating a lamp that I was looking for.
Of course I miss Alison, replaced by Donna full of patience in dealing with my darkness. Tristan is very patient in serving anything for me 👍🏾 Jack gave me the confidence to run this business, I have real hope. And Susan Weber and Katia Pierre she was gave me very details explanations. I remember a wise coach who gave me training👍🏾💚And of course, Roxanne was the one who convinced me that the light would shine💚😓, let me shed a tear😓🙏Forgive me if there are names I didn’t mention.
I don’t know how to thank you… Thank you to CHC, this strong and wise team🙏👍🏾 I don’t want to lose you all💚Thank you.. thank you for all of you💚💚

After researching various companies to help us start our Home Care Organization, Certified Homecare Consulting was by far the most professional and took the time to be thorough about what their process looks like. They certainly did not fall short of anything they promised and made the long and daunting experience of dealing with our states (CA) DSS licensing seem truly effortless from our end.
