Our History

Kansas Christian Home (KCH) opened in 1962 with the Christian desire to care for elders by helping them attain physical function, social and emotional health, and spiritual growth. With our affiliation to the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) and a strong focus on individual care, Kansas Christian Home strives to promote dignity and independence for each elder in our home and on our independent living campus.

Kansas Christian Home’s beautiful campus is located in Newton, KS. Newton has the appeal of a small town, but the expanding community provides a variety of shopping, restaurants, The Newton Medical Center, and many volunteer opportunities.

Health Care Facility and Services
Kansas Christian Home includes a 92-bed licensed skilled nursing facility certified by Medicare and Medicaid. The needs of elders who stay vary from skilled nursing to respite care. Services include individual care plans, physical and occupational therapy, speech therapy, and chaplaincy. We strive to offer a pleasurable atmosphere and facilitate independence for our residents.

Independent Living Campus
Our Independent Living Campus includes single homes, twin homes, quadplexes, and apartments which combine to make a special community. Campus elders have a caring neighborhood that gives the freedom of maintenance-free living, in-home health care, grounds care, security and emergency care and response systems.

Kansas Christian Home is also proud of Tilsley Manor. This is a special program that gives comfortable and secure living for ministers, missionaries and other church workers who have dedicated their lives to the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) and now have limited funds.

Kansas Christian Home is a place where friends are family and family is a community!
