The city
Living in Topeka, KS
Topeka, Kansas' capital city, sits along the Kansas River and blends state-government energy with Midwestern small-city ease. The downtown area features the striking Kansas State Capitol dome and local museums, while surrounding neighborhoods offer affordable residential living. It's a practical, low-key base for nurses who prefer a quieter pace with easy access to outdoor recreation and Kansas City's metro amenities.

Who they are
You would join Klaton Consultants in the Topeka orbit as regional clinical support for Assisted Living communities tied to Midwest Health—not a single bedside assignment.
More about Klaton Consultants
Resource and Clinical Support nurses move across the Topeka, Kansas City, and Manhattan regions, handling the work that shows up when a community needs a licensed responder: falls, condition changes, behaviors, admissions and re-admissions, pharmacy reviews, labs, physician rounds, order entry, and QAPI threads. Some roles also cover the RCC seat when it is vacant or on leave, so your calendar follows community need as much as a fixed unit roster. Pay on public estimates for LPN Resource work has recently clustered in the low-to-high $20s per hour, with Regional RN Assessment Coordinator estimates higher; those figures are third-party ranges, not a confirmed employer scale in the material we have. What is stated clearly is medical, dental, vision, voluntary insurance, PTO, and a scholarship program. You will need an LPN license (compact or multistate for some Clinical Support postings) and a car you trust, because the job is built on showing up across communities rather than parking once for the shift.

“I came for the sign-on bonus. I stayed because on my hardest night, my whole team stayed with me.”
The reality check
Before you decide
Weighing a first job here?
The license clock and the job hunt run at once, and new-grad windows do the deciding. Residency commitments carry fine print worth reading before you sign.
