Jacksonville Fingerprinting Center provides Florida Department of Elder Affairs (DOEA) fingerprinting and Live Scan services in Jacksonville, FL. We provide electronic fingerprinting for applicable direct service providers and other individuals who require Level 2 background screening for DOEA-related programs.

The Florida Department of Elder Affairs requires Level 2 background screening for applicable direct service providers who have direct contact with elderly clients and may have access to clients’ living areas, funds, personal property, or personal identification information.

DOEA Level 2 Background Screening

DOEA background screening includes state and national criminal history checks. Florida Department of Law Enforcement (FDLE) performs the state criminal history check, while the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) performs the national criminal history check through electronic Live Scan fingerprinting.

DOEA participates in the Florida Care Provider Background Screening Clearinghouse, which allows eligible screening information to be shared among participating Florida agencies.

Who May Need DOEA Fingerprinting?

DOEA background screening may apply to direct service providers, employees, administrators, coordinators, managers, supervisors, volunteers, and other individuals whose duties involve providing services directly to elderly clients. Specific exemptions and requirements depend on the individual’s role and applicable Florida law.

Before your fingerprinting appointment, follow your employer or agency’s instructions and bring your required Live Scan information, ORI information when applicable, and valid government-issued identification.
