Background checks are among the first items to get cut when money is tight, but they are key to a healthcare facility security plan, according to an article on the Campus Safety website.

Others forego the process entirely, or perform a cursory investigation.
These choices can expose an organization to greater losses than the initial cost of conducting thorough background checks.
