Prior to a decision on employment, a check of suspicion and criminal records is conducted for all job seekers who, in the applied position, may work within psychiatric care, habilitation, care of children and adolescents, or compulsory care of substance abusers, areas covered by facultative register extracts. This thus applies to everyone who will work close to patients, even if the tasks are currently not intended to primarily involve work with the aforementioned patient groups.
