With the primary location in McPherson and an alternative care site in Hutchinson, Bluestem PACE (Program of All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly) serves individuals aged 55 and better in a six-county south central Kansas region with medical, social, physical and personal care so seniors can remain living independently in their homes for as long as possible.

The PACE Good Neighbor Fund provides financial assistance to program participants in the event of unexpected circumstances, and assists Bluestem PACE in providing highly coordinated and integrated medical, social, physical and personal care. 

“We are grateful for this kind of community support that assists older adults with care and services that allow them to live safely and independently in their own homes,” said Derek Yoder, Bluestem Communities vice president of Fund Advancement. “This event will be a good opportunity to enjoy the weekend, entertainment, refreshments and company while also supporting the seniors in our community.”
