Excellence in Care
Our Story
Our team of healthcare professionals is led by our Administrator, Nikki Schmitz. Nikki has been a licensed nursing home administrator since May of 2020. Nikki started her long-term care career in 2002. She considers herself very fortunate to have the opportunity to practice her chosen profession in her hometown and at the facility she has been at since 2002. Rochelle Rosenhagen is our Director of Nursing. Together they lead the WHCC team to provide care with person-centered care as a focus. Residents choose their schedules and make plans for the day. Smaller neighborhoods and consistent staffing help make the facility a fun place both for residents and staff. All employees work together with the residents’ needs as a top priority. Employees are empowered to assist the residents to have what they need and do what they want to do each day.
Why Us?
Neighborhoods
Each of our “neighborhoods”, Lilac Lane, Sunflower Way, and TLC Angels, have dedicated staff that works together with the Activity and Social Service Director to provide parties and other social engagements. They encourage residents to pursue their own interests and activities that allow them to maintain meaningful and fulfilling lives. Our trained activity professionals regularly schedule therapeutic and leisurely activities that reflect the interests and abilities of our residents.
Expansion
We are excited to see our facility grow in order to serve our community even better. We are currently working to develop independent-living duplexes. For more information please call Sherry Rinke at 620-532-5801.

Review
“When faced with the decision of where to put our mother and grandmother, we chose Wheatlands Health Care Center in Kingman Kansas. We chose this facility for several reasons. One being a convenience for our family, but the main reason was the wonderful care we knew she would receive. We could not have asked for a more loving, caring, and competent staff. Our mother’s diagnosis of ALS was not one the nurses and aides deal with on a daily basis, but they knew exactly what to do to keep her comfortable and content. They always made sure they kept us informed with every issue no matter how small. We are so grateful for the care our mother received prior to her passing and would strongly recommend Wheatlands to any family when making this difficult decision.” – The Norma G. Family
