We had a fantastic time at the Newton Area Chamber of Commerce's College Night! It was great connecting with over 200 students from Bethel College, North Newton, KS, Hesston College, Hutchinson Community College, and Wichita State University.

We loved being a part of this community effort to welcome college students back to school. We promoted our volunteering opportunities (https://bit.ly/3M5Qc2E) and handed out first-aid kits and snacks. It's always inspiring to see the next generation of leaders!

Students, if you need a sick visit while you're at school, our Immediate Care team is here for you! https://bit.ly/3sS2lBs

The answer is bone health!

Strong bones are essential for staying active and independent. Osteoporosis can be a concern, but you have the power to protect your bones.

A DEXA scan is a quick, painless screening that can accurately assess your bone density. https://bit.ly/3JvgAqV

A doctor's referral is required.

The History of Newton Medical Center

More than a century ago, Dr. John T. and Lucena Axtell founded Newton’s first hospital, Axtell Hospital. For four decades, the Axtells served the community until they passed on the hospital to the Kansas Christian Missionary Society. At that time, the name was changed to Axtell Christian Hospital, a Christian Church/Disciples of Christ organization. At the turn of the century, Reverend David Goerz and Sister Frieda Kaufman founded Bethel Deaconess Hospital as a mission of the Mennonite Church. Mennonite deaconesses remained involved with the hospital’s operations until 1983. On Jan. 1, 1988, the two hospitals merged to become Newton Medical Center.
