Caregiver screening in Tennessee
The person you hire to care for a child or a parent will be alone with them for hours. Pinnacle's caregiver screening checks the records and registries the agency did not.
Caregiver Screening handled by a licensed private detective agency
Tennessee families hire caregivers through agencies, apps and word of mouth, and the screening behind those hires ranges from thorough to nonexistent. Caregiver screening by a private detective agency verifies identity across the names a person has used, checks criminal and civil records directly in the counties where they have lived, searches abuse and neglect registries and sex offender registries, pulls driving records for anyone who will transport a child or parent, verifies certifications and prior employment, and speaks to references as a private eye rather than a checkbox.
For families with an existing caregiver about whom concerns have arisen, we pair screening with lawful monitoring to verify how care is actually delivered.
Situations caregiver screening casework is built for
If one of these sounds familiar, a confidential conversation costs nothing and usually clarifies the next step.
- A caregiver hired informally or through an app with minimal screening
- An agency check you do not fully trust
- A caregiver who will drive, manage medications or handle money
- References that are hard to reach or vague
- Gaps in work history or names that do not quite match
- A child or parent who seems uneasy around the caregiver
