The Agency for Healthcare Administration (AHCA) oversees the background check requirements for individuals and medical facilities, including assisted living and nursing homes. A significant law update was passed, requiring a new LiveScan Level 2 Background Check and a headshot photo. Even employees who were previously fingerprinted for their license must now be re-screened under the department’s new retention policy.
