Subject: [MCOH-EH] Angency Nurses
We are going to bring in some agency nurses to help with staffing shortages. How do you handle these individuals for onboarding? Besides proof of vaccination history, do you do ppd’s and drug screens on them or do you utilize the documentation
from the agency? Are there time limits on when the drug screen or ppd should be repeated at your facility?
Thank you,
