What
is the vision of the LIFE Project?
Almost
every Kansan has a story to tell about someone they know and love and
the experience they had at the end of life.
The good
news for Kansans is that health care professionals, public policy leaders
and citizens are all committed to these goal and vision of the life project!
- We
imagine a Kansas where all citizens who suffer from advanced chronic
and terminal illnesses are able to live their lives in comfort, with
dignity and with hope.
- We
see a Kansas where health care professionals are well-trained in palliative
and end-of-life care and health care systems focus on understanding
and meeting patient needs.
- We
envision a state where citizens will talk and share with those they
love about the kind of care they want if they ever become unable to
make those decisions for themselves.
- We
picture a Kansas where citizens will be treated by health care providers
who ask about, care about and honor patient wishes.
- We
imagine a Kansas where needless suffering and pain at the end of life
will become a thing of the past.
