Frequently Asked Questions
This will largely depend upon the campus you choose and the housing arrangement you require. For facility admission, most applicants can be accommodated immediately or within a few days or weeks; however, at the Ozark campus, the wait could be longer. Independent living housing may have a waiting list depending on the location. We encourage you to contact the campus of your choice for up-to-date availability information.
There is no longer a minimum age requirement to be a resident of the Baptist Homes.
No, in 2006 the Board of Trustees of The Baptist Home voted to have an open admissions policy. One scriptural
basis for this is Galatians 6:10 which states we are to “do good to all people, especially the household of faith.”
No, this policy was changed in 1981. Turning over all of your assets is no longer a requirement for admission.
Residents or their responsible parties can manage their own funds and receive a bill for services.
