Student Background Checks

Meet JCAHO Requirements

Clinical education programs provide vital hands-on experiences for students as they advance in their education. These students are involved in patient contact and should be held to the same standards of patient safety as would any hospital employee. Many clinical sites now require background checks for healthcare students rotating through their education program due to patient safety standards and Joint Commission guidelines.

Healthcare facilities requiring background checks for their clinical students must work with the educational institutions to ensure that students meet this requirement. The coordination of this requirement can be challenging and time consuming for all parties.
