Corra Group is providing a wide range of drug collection sites in order to accommodate the compliance needs of those in the healthcare industry. As the healthcare industry continues as one of the strongest growth sectors in American Industry , there is a greater need for for such personnel as nurse practitioners, and people working in home health care services.
“Often drug tests are mandated before healthcare workers can be put on the job,” said Nick Gustavson, Corra Group Co-Founder. “There are pre-employment screening drug tests and the periodic drug tests with emphasis on contractors who work for the different recruiting agencies. When the healthcare worker accepts a new position, the staffing agency is required to conduct drug test as one of several background checks. Additional background searches may range from criminal records searches, to Healthcare Sanctions background checks .
“Any healthcare facility that is supported in any way with government funding is required to have its personnel undergo the healthcare sanctions background check,” said Gustavson. “It doesn’t matter if the employee is a doctor, a nurse, or even the IT guy who can’t tell a scalpel from a thermometer. If he is on the healthcare sanctions list, the medical facility is at risk of losing its government funding.”
