Spotlight On: Faith Haven Senior Centre

Faith Haven Members

Faith Haven Senior Care Centre in Jackson has a reliable core of leaders and members who have truly demonstrated what union power is all about. The 50 members there, including CENAs, Dietary Aides, Cooks, Laundry Aides and Housekeepers are represented by stewards Amy Nelson, Diana Kujawa, Stephanie Squires, Linda Hale, and Candi Blake. They have settled many grievances, including significant economic and non-economic cases, as well as the reinstatement of terminated employees. They also recently reached a tentative agreement on their new contract. The entire membership of Faith Haven should also be commended for their political efforts, with over three-fourths of the members donating to COPE!

Congrats to Livonia Woods LPNs

Congratulations to LPNs at Livonia Woods Nursing Home, who voted overwhelmingly to join together in SEIU! The LPNs exercised their voice on the job to form a union, following a recent NLRB hearing decision that championed the workers’ right to a fair election. The NLRB hearing officer ruled in favor of SEIU Healthcare Michigan and directed that an election be held, despite Livonia Woods’ attempts to keep the LPNs from voting. We are pleased to welcome our brand new LPN members into the SEIU Healthcare Michigan family!

Nursing Home Action Agenda Video

Over the past 40 years we have organized more than 100 other nursing homes across the state. We’ve only been able to do so because we have a strong tradition of improving the lives of nursing home workers and other workers want to be a part of that. Now it’s time to build on that tradition with the launch of our ground-breaking Nursing Home Action Agenda. Click on the video below to learn more.
