Case Study: CareMinders achieves 24-hour background checks and cuts per-hire cost from $125 to $35 with HireRight

CareMinders Streamlines Recruiting with HireRight

CareMinders Home Care, an in‑home healthcare franchised operation founded by Gary Kneller, operates 18 independently owned locations in 11 states and serves a vulnerable, fluctuating population with as few as 100 and as many as 500 employees at different times. Because caregiver quality is mission‑critical, franchisees needed a consistent, fast and affordable background‑screening process — prior vendors produced expensive, slow, incomplete and confusing results that couldn’t meet rapid hiring needs.

CareMinders implemented HireRight’s on‑demand background screening and multi‑location training across its network, gaining detailed, easy‑to‑read reports and pre‑screening benefits that deter poor applicants. The change cut cost per hire from $125 to $35, shortened turnaround from five days to about 24 hours, improved hiring quality and helped protect patients and the company’s reputation.
