• Good background check: The relationships between our caregivers and our clients are built on trust, which requires trustworthy candidates to fulfill.
• Good professional references: We also look for candidates who have a record of dependability as well as high performance, which your references help to reveal.
• Ability to pass a prehire drug screening: This requirement ties into the need for dependability as well as the capacity to uphold Visiting Angels values.
