Our facility does not use VetPro to credential medical residents, do we have to credential them for the Stand Down?
If a medical resident is involved in human research, you should verify that the Resident Credentials Verification Letter (RCVL) and the credentials are on file at the affiliate. All the credentials are maintained by the affiliate, and the affiliate should verify the education, training, licensure and any certification the resident claims. The affiliate generally does not run the resident’s name against the exclusionary lists maintained by HHS and FDA, so you will have to do this.
