Licensure Unit is responsible for assuring the public that health-related practices provided by individuals, facilities and programs are safe, of acceptable quality, and that the cost of expanded services is justified by the need. This assurance is accomplished through the following activities:

  • Licensing, certifying or registering individuals to provide health care services or services that may relate to or affect health;
  • Inspecting or surveying health care facilities and child care facilities; and
  • Reviewing capital expansions proposed for nursing homes and proposals for the sale of hospitals by not-for-profit owners to for-profit owners.

The Licensure Unit works with various professional licensing boards that help administer the licensing and regulation of health and health-related professions and occupations, and with other advisory groups on matters involving health and human services.
