Who We Are

SEIU Healthcare Michigan is our state’s largest local union with more than 55,000 members. We are comprised of a dedicated group of home care workers, Registered nurses, nursing home aides and hospital support staff who are united to create a brighter future for ourselves, our families and our communities.

Our Vision
SEIU members and leaders in healthcare—now 1 million strong—have a unique opportunity to build a national union that can change the future of America by creating a new, fully funded healthcare system we can all be proud of—a healthcare system that:

• Puts patients and quality care first.

• Provides affordable care to every man, woman, and child in Michigan.

• Recognizes that all healthcare workers must be treated with the professional respect and dignity they have earned, including high standards for pay, benefits, training and staffing, and the freedom to unite in a union without interference.

• Understands that workers must have a strong voice in the workplace and be full partners with management in determining the best way to deliver quality care.

• Ensures quality, long term care to meet the needs of our aging population in the coming years.



Commitment to Diversity

Diversity is a cornerstone of SEIU Healthcare Michigan. We have members from all across the state and from all walks of life and we value each member individually for their unique background and skills. We encourage others to learn from the wide array of human similarities and differences in our increasingly diverse world and we do not tolerate any form of discrimination at the workplace, in politics or in our communities including those based on race, religion, color, national origin, gender, age, disability or sexual orientation.
