Resident Rights

In 2025, Resident Rights/Exercise of Rights (F550) was a top ten citation for nursing homes in the state of Michigan. In an effort to help nursing homes with their Rights practices, SLCS offers a Rights Consultation to provide education and information, review policies and procedures, and discuss measures to enhance or improve processes that are identified through onsite reviews, discussions, and observations.
