Midland Care Connection

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

One of Midland Care Connection’s hospice programs, offered through its Community Care Hospice partnership, provides compassionate, personalized end‑of‑life care to individuals and their families in central and south‑central Kansas. As a not‑for‑profit organization with decades of experience, Midland Care focuses on comfort, dignity, and support for those facing life‑limiting illnesses, delivering services tailored to each person’s needs at home, or in partner facilities.

Through the Community Care Hospice joint venture with local nonprofit retirement and senior living communities, the program extends this expertise across multiple counties, combining skilled clinical care with emotional and spiritual support to help patients and families navigate the final stages of life with compassion and respect.
