There are several types of background checks that employers may conduct, including:
- Criminal Background Checks: These checks reveal any criminal history, including felonies and misdemeanors. - Employment History Verification: This ensures that the candidate has the experience they claim to have. - Educational Verification: This confirms that the candidate has the necessary educational qualifications. - License Verification: This checks if the nurse's license is valid and if there are any disciplinary actions against it. - Drug Screening: Some employers require drug tests to ensure that the nurse is free from substance abuse.
