What California requires of a licensed Home Care Organization
California is one of the strictest states in the country for non-medical home care. Under the Home Care Services Consumer Protection Act (Health & Safety Code §1796.10 et seq.), every legitimate agency must hold an active HCO license from CDSS. Here's what that means for you as a client:
State-vetted ownership
Every owner, officer, and administrator of A&M Home Care Corp has been fingerprinted, background-checked through the California Department of Justice and FBI, and cleared by CDSS before the license was issued.
Home Care Aide Registry
Every caregiver we send into a California home is individually registered on the California Home Care Aide Registry, DOJ/FBI background-checked, TB-cleared, and cleared to work in your home.
Mandatory training
California requires five hours of entry-level training plus five hours of annual continuing education for every Home Care Aide. A&M's training program exceeds the state minimum.
Full liability coverage
State law requires licensed HCOs to carry commercial general liability, professional liability, workers' compensation, and employee dishonesty bond coverage. A&M carries all four plus non-owned auto.
Employee model, not gig
A&M caregivers are W-2 employees — not 1099 contractors or gig-app workers. That means A&M is responsible for payroll taxes, workers' comp, and supervision, not you.
State-regulated care plans
Every California client receives a written care plan signed by the client (or authorized representative), reviewed periodically, and updated whenever care needs change — exactly as CDSS requires.
How to look up our California license
You don't have to take our word for it. California maintains a public search tool where any family can look up a Home Care Organization by name or license number and see its status, address, and history.
- Go to the CDSS Care Facility Search.
- Under “Facility Type” choose Home Care Organization.
- Search by license number 364700202, or by name “A&M Home Care Corp.”
- You'll see our license status, licensed address, and administrator on file.
If you ever have a concern about a licensed California home care agency — including ours — you can file a complaint directly with the CDSS Home Care Services Bureau or call the CDSS Complaint Hotline at 1-877-424-2243.
