Hearthstone, A Ministry of Wesley Life, held a groundbreaking ceremony Friday to celebrate the expansion of The Cottages.
Hearthstone’s Executive Director Nancy Hamilton says the occasion reflects a significant community fundraising campaign to add 36 suites to the campus off of North Main Street in Pella. She says a water-main break caused flooding of Jefferson Place on February 20, 2020, and this new construction will, in part, offset the loss of that facility.
“The good news is, however, that provided we are able to secure the needed private funding, we will continue to honor our Jefferson Place history with a similar model of care with an updated design at The Cottages. We look forward to welcoming back all Jefferson Place residents who would like to return to their homes with us.”

LAWRENCE A team of investigators at the University of Kansas is collecting data and designing interventions to improve the quality of sleep for firefighters and paramedics in the Lawrence Douglas County Fire-Medical Department.
For these first responders, better sleep could improve their quality of life and boost their performance as they encounter life-and-death situations. The stressful work of responding to emergencies demands both physical stamina and quick decision making.
“Among the many responsibilities of their job, our EMTs and paramedics have to make drug calculations regardless of the time of day or night or situation, so sleep deprivation is a concern,” said Kevin Joles, division chief with LDCFM. “If somebody is sleep deprived and distracted when throwing a ladder against a house and they hit a power line, it could kill them or another firefighter.”
