American Association of Homes and Services for the Aging The American Association of Homes and Services for the Aging is committed to advancing the vision of healthy, affordable, ethical aging services for America. The association represents 5,600 mission-driven, not-for-profit elder services providers, including Brewster Place.
Brewster Place was among the first retirement communities in the nation to sign the Quality First covenant. Quality First is a philosophy of quality and a framework for earning public trust in aging services. It is a renewal of our commitment to help older adults and their loved ones live their lives to their fullest potential. Quality First is about raising the consciousness of all the stakeholders...government, consumers, the people we serve and their families.
Kansas Association of Homes and Services for the Aging Founded in 1954, the Kansas Association of Homes and Services for the Aging represents 160 not-for-profit nursing homes, retirement communities, hospital long-term care units, assisted living facilities, senior housing and community based service providers throughout the state.
JAAA advocates on aging issues, builds community partnerships and implements programs within Shawnee, Jefferson and Douglas counties to help seniors live independent and dignified lives.
The Kansas Department on Aging uses public and private resources to improve the security, dignity, and independence of Kansas seniors, their families, seniors' caregivers, and all Kansans living in adult care homes.
Brewster Place is a certified Eden Alternative site. The core concept of The Eden Alternative is strikingly simple. We must teach ourselves to see the environments as habitats for human beings rather than facilities for the frail and elderly. We must learn what Mother Nature has to teach us about the creation of vibrant, vigorous habitats. The Eden Alternative shows us how companion animals, the opportunity to give meaningful care to other living creatures, and the variety and spontaneity that mark an enlivened environment can succeed where pills and therapies fail.
Brewster Place was founded in 1964 by the four United Church of Christ churches in Topeka.
Topeka's hometown newspaper.
Topeka's hometown university, at Washburn Learning For a Lifetime is more than a motto...it's call to action. Since 1865, the University has lived up to that call through educational excellence.
Topeka's only not-for-profit hospice. Midland's mission is to enhance the end-of-life journey by offering patients/clients and their families, and the communities we serve, programs that provide care, respect, education and hope.
