Registration, AHCA licensing, EIN setup, and your first caregivers — laid out step by step by someone who actually built a Florida home care agency from zero. Skip the expensive mistakes.
Get the Startup Kit → Ask a QuestionThese are the real steps — in the order that saves you time and money. Each one is covered in depth inside the Startup Kit.
Companion care, home health aide services, or skilled care — your choice decides which AHCA license you need, your startup cost, and how fast you can launch. Most new owners start non-medical and expand later.
Form your LLC with the Florida Division of Corporations, then get your federal EIN. Doing these in the right order keeps your license application clean.
Florida home care providers are regulated by the Agency for Health Care Administration. The application has requirements most first-timers miss — and mistakes here cost months.
Liability coverage, workers' comp decisions, and the core policies AHCA expects you to have in place before you serve your first client.
This is where most new agencies stall. You get the same hiring and onboarding systems I use with established agencies — job posts, screening, and a 7-day onboarding structure.
Referral sources, positioning, and the basics of getting known in your county — so your license doesn't sit unused while bills come in.
Everything above, in plain language, with the exact documents and checklists — so you launch right the first time.

No jargon, no 200-page manuals. Clear steps, in order, with the documents you need.
Most guides stop at paperwork. This one covers hiring, onboarding, and getting clients — the part that actually makes money.
