LA CASA Personal Care
Sheridan County sits in Montana’s far northeastern corner, close enough to the North Dakota and Canadian borders that the region feels remote by design. La Casa Personal Care, a 32-bed assisted living community at 408 Lasater Avenue in Plentywood, operates in that setting under administrator Benny Richardson. The neighborhood carries a Walk Score of 60, moderately walkable, meaning some errands can be handled without a car. Sheridan Memorial Hospital is the nearest acute-care option should residents need it.
Care here spans several tracks at once: assisted living, memory care, respite stays, and rehabilitation services all operate under one roof, supported by 24-hour staffing and nursing care. Medication management and personalized care plans run in the background of daily life. An adult day care option also exists, giving families a way to bring in support during set hours without committing to full-time residency.
Daily routines include local transportation and help with everyday activities, plus a common living area where residents gather. Meals and snacks are covered throughout the day, and a nutrition and exercise program adds some structure beyond mealtimes.
Regulators reviewing La Casa Personal Care have focused on environmental and hazardous-materials safety and on how care planning gets documented, both standard areas of state oversight for facilities like this one. Between the residential care and the adult day program, La Casa Personal Care is built for families juggling different levels of need, whether that means moving a parent in full-time or finding daytime coverage while still keeping them at home.
