Recipient Rights:

You are required by the state of Michigan to take an annual rights training course. We have established quarterly walk-in training fairs where you can obtain your training in about an hour. You DO NOT need to reserve a spot for this training. The Recipient Rights walk-in training goes from 9:00 am until 4:00 pm in the Lew Boyd room and the Kool Family Center.

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Recipient Rights walk-in fairs will be cancelled until further notice. Please keep an eye out for email updates.

The State of Michigan requires that all staff, including Summit Pointe employees/contractors, external providers, and respite providers guardians, attend Recipient Rights training within the first 30 days of hire. We continue to hold these trainings for new hires and for annual renewal every other Tuesday at 10am via Zoom video conference.

• You must register for a class beforehand to receive the Zoom link.
• You are required to have a camera working either on a phone, tablet or computer. If you are unable to do this, you must have special accommodations made before the training starts.
  • If you are using a classroom setting and having multiple persons utilizing the same screen/camera, you will still need to register each participant.
• After the class, an assignment will be issued and must be completed. If you fail to complete the assignment, you WILL NOT RECEIVE A CERTIFICATE and will have to retake the class.
• Certificates will be issued on Friday after the class (unless a holiday). So the assignment needs to be completed before that to get credit. Again, if you fail to do the assignment (in a timely manner) you will have to retake the class.

Please email Tara McKernan at tam@summitpointe.org to reserve a spot. Include your name, email address, who you work for, and which training date you will be attending:
