Local expertise
Michigan facilities face their own survey pressures
In Michigan, nursing home surveys are conducted by the Department of Licensing and Regulatory Affairs (LARA), Bureau of Community and Health Systems, on behalf of CMS.
Being based in Detroit means we can reach facilities in Wayne, Oakland, and Macomb counties the same day, and anywhere in the Lower Peninsula quickly, for mock surveys, Immediate Jeopardy response, and onsite training.

Serving facilities across Michigan
From our Detroit base we support nursing homes in metro Detroit, including Wayne, Oakland, and Macomb counties, and across the state: Ann Arbor, Lansing, Flint, Saginaw, Grand Rapids, Kalamazoo, Traverse City, and the Upper Peninsula.
Michigan operators call us for the same reasons facilities do everywhere: a survey window is opening, a survey has gone badly, an MDS coordinator has left, or leadership needs experienced help. The difference is that we can be in your building quickly, and we understand the state’s survey process because we work in it.
We also work with assisted living communities and homes for the aged that answer to Michigan licensing rules alongside or instead of federal requirements.
