Why screen staff in medical & healthcare roles.

Healthcare professionals are expected to provide high quality of care, and background screening builds trust and confidence by verifying their credentials, qualifications and professional history.

Patient safety

Healthcare providers have a high duty of care to ensure the safety and wellbeing of those under their care. Background screening can identify evidence of past criminal activity, substance abuse and other behaviour that may pose a risk to patient safety.

Regulatory compliance

Every branch of the healthcare sector is subject to regulatory standards and requirements. Background screening allows organisations to show compliance with and meet the requirements related to licensing, accreditation and employment eligibility.

Protecting the vulnerable

It is vital in today’s climate to ensure that those healthcare providers who work with the most vulnerable in society, children and young people, the elderly and individuals with disabilities, maintain the highest standards of care. Background screening can identify any history of abuse or neglect to ensure the safety and wellbeing of those in their care.

Professional conduct

Healthcare professionals must adhere to and uphold the highest ethical and professional conduct. Thorough and detailed background screening can identify any prior instances of professional misconduct, disciplinary actions or claims arising from malpractice, to ensure and maintain the integrity of each healthcare workforce.

Litigation

Stringent background screening serves to demonstrate a high level of due diligence to help mitigate any risks associated with negligence in the hiring process or retention of staff who do not meet the necessary standards of professional integrity.
