Please note: Due to COVID-19, background checks are taking longer to process than normal. As a measure to control COVID-19's spread many courthouses have been closed, which delays access to information needed to complete some checks resulting in longer processing times.

We at ShiftMed appreciate your patience during this time and will update you throughout your background check processing.

For all Virginia Healthcare Professionals (CNA, LPN, RN) joining the ShiftMed team, see below for steps to complete your background check.

Background Check Steps:

  1. Once your TB Test, Annual Physical, Identification, Professional License and I-9 credentials are all verified by ShiftMed’s credentialing team, you will then be invited to complete your Background Check.

  2. Under the "Needs your attention" you will see Background Check -> Missing. Select the Background Check option, and follow the prompts on the screen.

  3. You must complete these forms in the app in order to continue your Background Check process.

  4. Once this form has been completed, ShiftMed will receive the results from Checkr within a few business days. Your profile will be updated with the results to complete your background check credential.

Note: The ShiftMed app will notify you right away when you are available to start working.
