The onboarding process involves passing a skills quiz, completing employment-related agreements, and providing credentials based on the requirements set forth by your state of residence or the facilities themselves.
Credentials typically include an annual physical exam, TB test results, a COVID vaccination card (or medical/religious exemption), and a background check.
Check out our help center article that discusses specific credentialing requirements by state.
