The Baptist Home in Chillicothe sits atop a gentle rise overlooking miles of rolling farmland approximately 90 minutes Northeast of Kansas City, Missouri. Because it is situated on the edge of town, the campus offers a quiet, relaxed setting with easy access to all the nearby conveniences. A paved walking path encircles the beautiful city park, a YMCA is available nearby, and each summer the town hosts a college baseball league which offers entertainment for residents and their visiting family and friends.
TBH-Chillicothe offers Independent (Active) Living & Assisted Living and Nursing Care options. Licensed by the State of Missouri for resident and nursing care, both levels of care provide residents a comfortable and safe environment that supports their emotional, spiritual, physical and social needs.

cover the cost of care. Financial assistance may be available for those who are unable to pay the full cost of their care. The need for financial assistance can be discussed during the admission process.
