How can I verify licensing for Hospices in River Ridge, LA?
CareListings sources provider information from Louisiana state licensing databases and public records. While our directory aims to include licensed facilities, licensing status can change frequently, and we cannot guarantee that every provider's license is currently active and in good standing. Hospice agencies must be Medicare-certified and state-licensed. Verify certification and view quality ratings through Medicare's Hospice Compare website (medicare.gov/care-compare), which shows family survey results and quality measures. Contact the Louisiana Department of Health for state licensing verification and complaint history. Ask the hospice agency for their Medicare certification number, state license, and accreditation status (many hospices are accredited by organizations like The Joint Commission or ACHC). Request verification of their medical director's credentials and staff qualifications.
