Launching a home healthcare agency is rewarding — but the paperwork can feel overwhelming if you don’t know where to start. The truth is, your documentation and business registration determine how fast you get approved, licensed, and ready to serve clients. Here are the top essentials every new agency must get right: ✅ 1. Proper Business Registration Before anything else, ensure your business structure is set up correctly: LLC, Corporation, or Sole Proprietorship EIN from the IRS State registration + required city/county permits Compliance with home care licensing laws in your state This is your foundation — getting it right saves you from delays later. 🗂️ 2. Complete & Organised Documentation Quality documentation protects your agency, your clients, and your caregivers. Key documents include: Policies & Procedures Manual Client Intake Forms Service Agreements Caregiver Employment Files Training & Competency Records Background Checks + Health & Vaccination Records Emergency Preparedness Plan QA/Compliance Plan Strong documentation is one of the biggest indicators of professionalism and compliance during inspections. 💡 Community Question 👉 What part of the documentation or registration process has been the most challenging for you?
