AI Summary
This bill amends Section 20194 of the Michigan Public Health Code to require nursing homes to provide pamphlets and complaint forms to certain individuals upon a resident's admission, assessment, evaluation, or relocation. The pamphlet, developed by the Michigan Department of Health, outlines the procedure for filing complaints against the nursing home or its staff. The bill also requires nursing homes to conspicuously display the pamphlet and complaint form at public entrances, patient waiting areas, and other common areas of the facility. This is intended to ensure that nursing home residents, their surrogate decision-makers, and family members have easy access to the information needed to file a complaint.
