    Based on 150 reviews
    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.

    Had an exceptional video call to go over policies with Mr. Haddad and to go over hiring and protocols with Ms. Thompson. Each separate meeting was absolutely needed and I left the meeting eager and ready to get going with this new journey I have just begun to start! Feeling motivated and empowered. This company has been a life saver. EVERYTHING that you can need to start a business from the ground up is provided. I have been happy with them so far and would do it all over again if given the opportunity.

I highly recommend CHC if starting an agency.Update 11/6/23:I want to thank Sue for all her help in helping us get our Medicare accreditation.

    Alison and the team at Certified Homecare Consulting did a FANTASTIC job helping my company get licensed in Texas. Alison was very responsive whenever I had questions, did a great job gathering all the necessary information, and handled what could have been a major roadblock to licensure in a matter of days. I highly recommend Alison and Certified Homecare Consulting and would use them again in a heartbeat!

    We had a great experience using Alison to assist us in our state Home (Non-Health) Care license. We appreciate the expertise, guidance and professional manner in which Alison and Starsha helped us. The legalities of required paperwork/binders to keep on hand would be entirely overwhelming without having the binders and policies provided and customized to our state needs. Honestly, we couldn’t have done it without them!

I know if I need anything I can count on them. our agency wouldn’t have made it this far without them. They are always willing to take the extra time to teach you. It is truly a pleasure working with them.

I want to specially thank Susan Guertin for all her help, knowledge, and guidance on the clinical side of the operations as well as getting us survey ready. I also want to thank Roxanne Ryder for her help with applications and guidance from the beginning. Also, a big thanks to the design and marketing team as well as the policy and procedure team.

    Our agency had the pleasure to work with Certified Home Health and the entire process was a dream come true. Our agency had contracted two other consultants prior and neither were as well qualified and knowledgeable about the acquisition of a home health license in florida as Certified Home Health. Alison was our first point of contact and was amazing to work with, extremely knowledgeable, charismatic, and attentive. Tristan, Starsha, and the rest of the team were also wonderful.

    After almost 2 years we finally got our license. I want to thank Allison and her team for all their hard work. Mark in the marketing department has also been amazing. I will recommend them to anyone who wants to start a home care agency. The state of Maryland makes it very difficult and they were very responsive to all of my calls and questions. Thanks again for all your hard work this is an amazing company

    CHC did a terrific job helping us understand and navigate through the process to file an application for and receive our Private Home Care Provider license with the State of Georgia. They provided us with the appropriate documents, policies, procedures, and clear guidance to complete this process in less than 90 days, which is the typical time period for the state to review and decide upon PHCP applications. We believe that we could not have obtained this license in the timeframe that we did without CHC’s help! We highly recommend that anyone needing assistance with state license applications contact CHC.

    CHC is the best!! It’s not easy getting a home care license in NC! It is very challenging and very expensive. Without Certified Homecare Consulting we would have been completely stressed with all the paperwork that you have to fill out for State. Donna H. is a blessing and very awesome to work with. She was very through and handled all our concerns and questions. I highly recommend them!! Steve G. is also a great person who is quick to respond with any concerns you may have. We couldn’t have done this without them!! So thank you guys!!

    Testimonials

    There is no wonder why we have a 5 Star rating with nearly all our clients. When you choose Certified Homecare Consulting, you are choosing a company providing you with the same efforts, support, and services we provide to the very same agencies we own and operate.  Here are what just a few of our clients have to say…

    Home Care Business

    “Working with Certified Home Care Consulting and Steve Goss has been a tremendous blessing to my life and to my agencies, Quality Personal Care Inc. I have a great amount of knowledge in the Homecare industry but I would not have been able to expand as quickly as I have if I did not receive the expertise and help that I received from Certified Home Care Consulting!

    Any Home Health Care, Home Care Agency, etc. looking to start a new agency or expand their existing agency, I highly recommend Certified Home Care Consulting. They are truly worth their weight in gold!

    Be blessed, be bold, and be brilliant!”

    Dr. Cedrick Spears, Owner, Quality Personal Care

    Home Care Business

    “Our experience was unique; we were happy to have the guidance your team supplied. Not knowing the process and what to do or how to do it, we were lost in the beginning. Having the consulting service team working with us, we were able to complete what we set out to do. Thank you to everyone that helped us through the process.”

    Barbara & Rose Talbot, Owners, Ample Care LLC

    Home Care Business

    “We are just getting ready to open. Certified did a great job getting us up and ready to open. There are other companies like yours, but they are much more expensive. I am sure they can’t be as good as your company. I am very thankful I didn’t get sucked into a franchise. They want 35 to 50 thousand in franchise fees & they sell you air and zip codes with 20,000 people. If you want to expand then you pay another franchise fee. On top of that you pay them 5 to 6 per cent on gross sales forever.

    I would advise anyone thinking of getting into this business to hire your firm.”

    Bill Thrush, Owner, A Better Life Senior Care

    Home Care Business

    “I highly recommend Certified Home Care (CHC) to help with health care licensing. From day one, their staff has been very professional and more important knowledgeable regarding home health from a business and legal perspective. I have recommended CHC to several friends and others who are looking to start a home health care business.

    Certified Home Care truly made the process of starting a home care business easier. Their strong team was always eager to help and guided me step by step. I am grateful for the partnership.”

    Daniel Harris, Owner, Celestial Home Care Inc.

    Home Care Business

    “My experience as a customer of Certified Homecare Consulting has been great, especially with the mock survey and clinical advice. I get responses to our clinical question immediately. Customer service is the best, everyone is professional and friendly. The Medicare certification process was excellent and less than one year after I started admitting patients I was certified with Medicare. I will continue having Certified Homecare Consulting do mock surveys for our agency, because when CHAP surveyed my agency, we did awesome. A Special Thanks to Starsha and Sue G for the amazing Mock survey.

    If you ever in need of consultation I advise you to give them a call. As long you follow their advice you will do excellent too.”

    Ruth Chabot, Owner, Uniting With You Home Care

    Home Care Business

    “Certified Homecare Consulting were incredible and excellent at what they do. If you are looking for experts on Medicare Accreditation and Certification, look no further. We could not have achieved accreditation with ALMOST NO Deficiency without them. They are very informative, effective and knowledgeable and provide a level of professionalism that is very hard to find. They worked with us every step of the way in providing the assistance we needed in order to stay in compliance with CHAP requirement…from the training, the Policies and Procedures Manual, Self-study materials and eventual Mock survey. They know their stuff and that made it a lot easier for us to go through the accreditation process successfully. It is also very comforting to know that Certified Homecare is always available when you need them in providing any support and help after accreditation. Our special thanks to Rena, the HR guru. She was tough on our organization but for a very good reason. She truly cares for our success. We are completely satisfied and will not hesitate to recommend them to anyone considering or in the process of starting a home healthcare agency.”

    Manny Ejiofor, CEO, Vine Homecare & Staffing

    Home Care Business

    “Certified Homecare Consulting has held our hand through the entire licensing and accreditation process from the very beginning. They made sure that we always felt comforted through what is otherwise an extremely stressful and uncertain time. Steve Goss assured us from the start that they would get us licensed to operate and kept his word the entire way. Terry and Chris spent countless hours on the phone with me, answering my million questions and educating me on how to operate this new business that I had no idea about. The level of care and attention they have given my company was immeasurably vital to successfully becoming licensed and passing my survey. I recommend this service to anyone who is nervous about opening a home care agency, because without them, I would not have had the guts, knowledge, or ability to do this on my own. Thank you, team!”

    Kristina De-Levi, CEO, Home Assist Healthcare Services

    Home Care Business

    “Thank you, Certified Homecare Consulting, for your support with starting up my business. Your staff has been amazing and wonderful during this process.

    “I had a great experience with Certified Homecare throughout the whole certification process. The entire knowledgeable team was helpful walking me through the whole process. I couldn’t have asked for more in a team of consultants.”
