title: Educational initiatives in long-term care--Midwest Bioethics Center's Kansas nursing home project.
abstract: Most Americans would doubtless agree that positive change is a critical need in facilities providing long-term care. This article describes a project currently underway in which Midwest Bioethics Center (MBC) staff and Kansas City area experts in long-term care are doing their part to create meaningful change in the way residents of nursing homes are cared for in the last chapter of their lives.
