About Newman Regional Health
Newman Regional Health is a fully functional acute care hospital, owned by the citizens of Lyon County, Kansas since 1922. For more than a century, our vision has been to continuously expand and enhance healthcare services to meet the evolving needs of our community.
Exceeding goals for clinical excellence and patient safety
Newman Regional Health's Cardiovascular Lab is accredited by the American College of Cardiology, providing both emergent and non-emergent percutaneous coronary intervention procedures.
Our 10-bed acute inpatient medical rehabilitation unit offers patients the opportunity to recover from serious illness, injury, or debility close to home, and includes a simulated living suite for occupational therapy. Our facility provides the only such program inside a critical access hospital in Kansas.
Our state-of-the-art, emergency room is a level 4 Trauma Center whose staff is dedicated to providing emergency triage within just a few minutes of entering the emergency room waiting area.
More than 70 specialty and primary care physicians and advanced practice providers work in our hospital and outpatient clinics to provide better access to a wider range of diagnostic, therapeutic, and surgical services than any other critical access hospital in the state of Kansas.
