How do I make a complaint dealing with a nursing home?

The Bureau of Health Systems, housed in the Michigan Department of Community Health, was established to ensure that facilities and individuals providing health care services do so in an effective and safe setting for the protection of our citizens. If you would like to learn more about the responsibilities of the Bureau of Health Systems or if you would like to make a complaint against a nursing home you may visit the Bureau of Health System’s website for detailed information on how to do so or contact them by phone: 1-800-882-6006.

How might I find more information about available nursing homes in my area?

The Michigan Department of Community Health’s web-site offers individuals the option to search the state for nursing homes as well as obtain specific information on those homes. To learn more about this search tool you can visit the DCH web-site.  For additional valuable information for Michigan seniors we invite you to visit the MiSeniors website.
