Hospice Business Development Training
A word of caution about marketing and promises…
We are going to build you a beautiful website that gets the job done. It’s going to look great, and you’re going to have input. We even make sure that your website is found on Google, Yahoo, Bing, and every other search engine. But please listen, as this is very important – no one can guarantee you will be on the first page of Google unless you are paying Google Ads. Do not waste money on SEO as a new agency.
Google Places, Facebook, Google Ads, and referral sites in some markets – this is where you spend money online. The hard work and the real reward are earned face to face through grassroots, on the ground marketing to patients and referral sources. We teach this in our training.

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…
“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
“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
“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
“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.
“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
“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
“Thank you, Certified Homecare Consulting, for your support with starting up my business. Your staff has been amazing and wonderful during this process. You have a very professional and talented team of people, and it’s been a pleasure working with them. Your continued support is also very appreciated. Thank you!”
Shamila Saeed, CEO, My Care, LLC
“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.”
Stephen Wanjira, Owner, Afya Home Care LLC Lawrence, MA
I wanted to take a moment to Thank you, Terri and Starsha for your thorough and professional approach. Each of you were very knowledgeable, approachable and a pleasure to work with. Each of us at Harborside agree that the money was well spent as the mock survey process and documented results have assisted us in preparing for our survey. Thank you”
Sylvie Hornor, RN Clinical Service Director, Harborside Hospice, LLC
“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.”
