Solomon
Valley Hospice
Solomon Valley Hospice was started again November 1, 1997. Barbara
Cashatt, RN., was hired as the director. As the idea was explored in the
community, it was determined that there was a great deal of support for
Hospice care similar to what the original Solomon Valley Hospice had
provided until 1991. The new Solomon Valley Hospice, a department of the
Mitchell County Hospital, took their first patient in December 1997.
They were Medicare Certified on May 5, 1998.
They are structered with a Director of Volunteers, Pastoral Coordinator,
Medical Director, Social Worker and RN's.
They provide in-service programs at area nursing homes and hospitals,
along with presentations for service organizations.
They have two hospice rooms in the hospital that are provided for the
comfort of the family as well as the patient. The goal of hospice is for
patients to remain at home if that is their wish. They are dedicated to
the patients' needs, especially with pain and symptom management, as
well as providing supportive services to the family, with bereavement
counseling available up to a year after their loved one's death.
All funds donated to Solomon Valley Hospice remain in our local
communities. All donations and memorials are tax deductible.

Mitchell
County Health Department
The Mitchell County Health Department/North Central Kansas Home Health
Agency operates under the supervision of the Mitchell County
Commissioners and is administered by Patricia A. Dowlin, BSN, RN. The 18
member advisory board lends support and guidance. The Mitchell County
Health Officer is the liaison to the medical community and offers
medical support and advice.
In 1976, Mitchell County residents voted to form a County Health
Department.
In the early years the public health department's focus was
immunizations, family planning and public health home visits.
Home Health Services were started with a $23,269. grant from the State
in 1979.
The North Central Kansas Home Health Agency became Medicare Certified in
1979.
As more needs of the community were identified, more services were made
available through the Mitchell County Health Department/North Central
Kansas Home Health Agency. Those services include over twenty different
categories of related health care needs that are available in the area.
They provide a list of the Licensed Day Care providers in Mitchell
County.
