Midland Care Connection

Midland Care Connection is a not-for-profit, community-based organization dedicated to helping older adults and seriously ill individuals stay independent and supported in their homes. Established in 1978, we offer a full continuum of care, including hospice, palliative care, home health, grief and loss counseling, and our signature PACE (Program of All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly) program.;Our mission centers on "meeting individual needs through innovative care solutions," and we serve people across multiple counties in northeast Kansas.

Hospice Program

Compassionate, nonprofit end-of-life care service designed to support individuals with life-limiting illnesses and their families by focusing on comfort, dignity, and quality of life rather than curative treatment. The hospice team provides personalized pain and symptom management, emotional and spiritual support, and practical assistance wherever the patient calls home — whether that’s in their own residence, a nursing facility, or at the organization’s dedicated inpatient hospice house for more intensive needs. The program also extends bereavement support for families and works to help patients make the most of the time they have left by addressing physical, social, and emotional needs with sensitivity and respect.

RN Admissions Nurse

Plays a key role in helping patients and families begin hospice care with understanding and support. The nurse completes the initial assessment by reviewing the patient’s medical history, evaluating symptoms, and determining eligibility for hospice services. They explain the hospice philosophy, services, and care plan to the patient and family, answer questions, and obtain necessary consents. The RN admissions nurse also collaborates with physicians and the hospice care team to develop an individualized plan of care, ensures medications and equipment are arranged, and helps families feel prepared and supported during the transition to hospice care.

RN Case Manager

The RN Case Manager plays a critical role in coordinating and delivering high quality, patient centered end of life care. They are responsible for assessing patients’ medical needs, developing individualized care plans, and ensuring that patients receive appropriate symptom management, medications, and therapies to maintain comfort and dignity. The RN Case Manager also serves as the primary clinical liaison between patients, families, and the interdisciplinary hospice team, which may include physicians, social workers, chaplains, and volunteers. Additionally, they provide education and emotional support to families, help navigate complex medical decisions, and ensure compliance with regulatory standards, all while advocating for the patient’s wishes and enhancing quality of life during hospice care.

RN Hospice House | Nights

Provides hands on, comfort focused nursing care to patients receiving end of life services in an inpatient hospice setting. The role centers on assessing and managing symptoms (especially pain), administering medications, and ensuring patients remain as comfortable and dignified as possible. The nurse also updates care plans, documents all care provided, and works closely with the interdisciplinary hospice team (physicians, aides, social workers, chaplains, and volunteers). In addition, they support and educate families, helping them understand what to expect and offering emotional reassurance during a difficult time. Overall, the position combines clinical skill with compassionate, holistic care focused on quality of life rather than curative treatment.
