: Actually it does specifically break them into distinct groups it says:

: "Licensed personnel: Health care services provided by a Nurse, or a licensed physical, occupational, respiratory, or speech therapist;

: "Other Personnel: Home health care aid, personal care attendant, homemaker, and chore services"

: Because they separate "licensed" and "other" one knows that licensure isn't required.

: Let's all go back to our college B-law class on contracts; if they had to be licensed they would put them there with the other license professionals.

: Long-Term Care Specialist

Thomas if this is true where does it actually say in black and white that a home health aide could be unlicensed? I understand that if I need homemaker services i could hire a cleaning lady but no where does it state that I could hire an unlicensed home health aide!
