This includes verification of active state licensure, DEA registration (where applicable), malpractice insurance, and professional references. We also conduct background checks and confirm that each candidate’s experience aligns with the specific care setting you operate—whether that is outpatient behavioral health, inpatient psychiatric facilities, residential treatment programs, or school-based mental health services. We only present candidates who are credentialed, experienced, and ready to contribute from day one.
