New caregiver screening
Invite caregivers by email or text when you're ready to run a check. Review their results before adding them to a client's care plan.
For home care agency owners
Background checks for home care agencies.
Before you introduce a caregiver to a family, review a check tied to their verified identity. Screen caregivers and home health aides for senior care, personal care, and companion care, with records you can refer back to.

Screening requirements.
State home-care rules set the baseline
Many states require background checks for home care licensure or caregiver registries, with state-specific disqualifying offenses and re-check intervals. Your state's rules determine your package.
Medicare/Medicaid exclusion screening
Federally funded providers must screen staff against the OIG and SAM exclusion lists. Exclusion screening is not part of the standard vID package — contact us about your requirements before relying on it.
All checks run through PBSA-accredited partners with FCRA disclosures and consent built into the candidate flow.
