Clearinghouse fingerprinting and the required photograph captured in a single appointment at our West Palm Beach office.
Anyone working in a licensed healthcare setting in Florida goes through Level 2 screening administered by the Agency for Health Care Administration. Hospitals, nursing homes, assisted living, home health, hospice, clinics, and the agencies that staff them all fall inside it. AHCA screening is one type of Florida Level 2 screening — the statutory standard is identical, but the route and the repository are specific to healthcare.
That repository is the Care Provider Background Screening Clearinghouse, a shared database that lets any participating employer you're attached to retrieve your screening rather than printing you again. It has one requirement that catches people out: a photograph taken at the same moment as your fingerprints. Not one emailed afterwards, not one pulled from your licence. We capture it here, against the neutral background the specification calls for, in the same appointment.
RNs, LPNs, CNAs, and clinical support staff are screened before placement in a licensed facility.
Home health aides and the agencies placing them screen every employee who enters a client's home.
ALF and skilled nursing employees sit squarely inside the statutory requirement.
Substance abuse and mental health providers licensed through the state screen to the same standard.
Non-clinical staff with patient contact or records access are frequently screened by policy or contract.
The Clearinghouse suits travel and agency placements best — one screening, many employers.
The Clearinghouse exists so a healthcare worker isn't fingerprinted afresh for every employer. Your result sits in the shared repository and any participating provider that adds you to their roster can retrieve it. That only works if the record is unambiguously yours, which is why the photograph is captured at the moment of screening and stored alongside the prints. It's an identity anchor rather than a formality.
In practice this is where submissions fail. A provider without photo capability prints you, sends the fingerprints, and the record posts with no image — then your employer can't complete the retrieval and you're asked to come back. Our system captures the photograph as part of the same transaction, on the specified neutral background. One appointment, complete record.
A Clearinghouse record with no image is incomplete and your employer cannot retrieve it.
Facilities under one brand often hold separate ORIs. Use the one for the site actually hiring you.
If your existing result is current, a new employer can retrieve it. Have them check before you rebook.
Clearinghouse retention depends on an employer maintaining your status. Dormant records expire.
Tell us which facility or agency is screening you and we'll confirm the correct ORI before capture.
Rolled and flat impressions plus the Clearinghouse photograph, against the required background.
The complete record — prints and image — transmits the same day and posts under your profile.
Once posted, any provider you're associated with pulls the result directly. Nothing for you to carry.
One flat fee, all-in — the state fee, the federal fee, and the AHCA retention fee are already inside it. Nothing is added at your appointment, and we don't charge a separate rolling fee on top.

It's one type of Florida Level 2 screening. The statutory standard is the same; AHCA is the agency route for licensed healthcare, and results are deposited in the Clearinghouse. If someone tells you that you need both, they almost certainly mean this one.
We take it at our West Palm Beach office in the same appointment as your fingerprints, against the neutral background the specification requires. You don't need to bring or arrange a photograph.
Ordinary clothing is fine. Hats and sunglasses come off, as with any identity photograph. There's no dress code and nothing to prepare.
Generally five years, provided your employment status is kept current in the system by an associated provider. If you leave the field and the record goes dormant, you may need rescreening on return.
Often not — that's the point of the Clearinghouse. If your result is current and your new employer adds you to their roster, they can retrieve it. Have them check before you book.
Fingerprints transmit the same day; posting typically follows within a few business days, after which your employer can retrieve it. Timing on the state side isn't something any provider controls.
Yes, and it's worth scheduling as one block rather than booking people separately. For companies and facilities we can come to you by special request. Call (561) 475-4757 with a headcount.
That plus a valid government photo ID. Double-check you've been given the ORI for the facility actually screening you rather than a sister location under the same brand.
