Licensing & Compliance Consultant Former AZDHS Compliance Officer

Behavioral Health & Residential Facility Specialist

With over four years of experience as a Compliance Officer for the Arizona Department of Health Services (AZDHS), I bring firsthand knowledge of the regulatory landscape that governs healthcare, behavioral health, and residential facilities in Arizona. During my tenure at AZDHS, I conducted inspections, audits, and compliance reviews for a wide range of facility types—including behavioral health residential facilities, sober living homes, counseling centers, and other licensed care environments.

Now, as an independent Licensing & Compliance Consultant, I help healthcare providers and facility operators successfully navigate Arizona’s complex licensing and regulatory processes. Whether you’re opening a new facility, expanding services, renewing an existing license, or preparing for a compliance inspection, I offer strategic guidance and hands-on support to ensure your operation is fully prepared and aligned with AZDHS standards.

My services include:

-Licensing application preparation (new, change of ownership, relocation, etc.)

-Policy and procedure development Compliance audits and mock inspections

-Pre-inspection readiness and on-site walkthroughs

-Strategic planning for multi-site operators

-Staff training and regulatory interpretation

By bridging the gap between providers and regulators, I help my clients avoid delays, reduce costly mistakes, and achieve licensing success with confidence. My mission is to simplify the process so you can focus on delivering high-quality care.
