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 Wisconsin Healthcare Professionals (CNA, LPN, RN) joining the ShiftMed team, see below for steps to complete your background check.
Background Check Steps:
Once your TB Test, Physician Statement, Identification, and Professional License credentials are all verified by ShiftMed’s credentialing team, you will then be invited to complete your Background Check.
You will be prompted in the App to sign the Wisconsin BID Form. Please answer all of questions to the best of your ability.
You must complete this form in order to continue your Background Check process.
