Healthcare Organizations: Duty to Promote Patient and Employee Safety

The risks of hiring an individual with a criminal history is high for any organization but are especially high for healthcare organizations. Laborchex’s health care background screening solutions help verify whether a health care service provider, employee, or volunteer has a criminal or sex offender history.

Laborchex has a long history of serving the healthcare industry. Our clients include hospitals, nursing homes, and home care agencies. Our health care employment background screening solutions include background checks on all types of providers, employees, contractors, and volunteers, such as physicians, registered nurses, nursing assistants, home health aides, occupational therapists, physical therapists, paramedics, and medical records technicians.
