Overview of The Ivy at Great Falls

The Ivy at Great Falls sits at 1130 17th Ave S in Great Falls, Montana, and it’s a big place. With 278 beds, it’s built to handle a lot of different people at once: someone recovering from surgery who just needs a few weeks of rehab, and someone who’s going to call this place home for a long while.

The average resident stays about 152 days, somewhere between a short rehab stint and a long-term placement. Right now the facility is running at 39% occupancy, so there’s real room here. If your family is trying to move fast, that matters; since you’re not going to end up on a waiting on a waitlist.

Getting around the neighborhood on foot is doable but limited. The Walk Score sits at 43 out of 100, somewhat walkable, so you might reach a handful of nearby spots without a car, but plan on driving for most errands or visits.

Money-wise, The Ivy works with Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay, so there’s flexibility depending on your situation. Medicaid covers the largest share of new residents, 37%, and those stays tend to run long, averaging 10 to 11 months. That tells you something real: this is a place built around steady, ongoing nursing care for people settling in for a while, not just a quick stop on the way somewhere else.

Frequently Asked Questions about Memory Care in Montana

What's the difference between assisted living and memory care in Montana?

Assisted living in Montana supports residents with daily activities (bathing, dressing, medication management) while preserving independence. Memory care is a specialized form of assisted living for residents living with Alzheimer's or dementia, and adds 24/7 secured environments, dementia-trained staff, and structured routines designed to reduce confusion and wandering.

Does Montana Medicaid cover memory care?

Montana Medicaid does not directly pay room-and-board for memory care, but most states (including Montana) offer Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) waivers that can offset the cost of care services delivered inside a licensed community. Eligibility, waitlists, and covered services vary — check directly with the state Medicaid agency.

What is memory care?

Memory care is a specialized form of assisted living for residents living with Alzheimer's disease or other forms of dementia, with secured environments, dementia-trained staff, and routines built to reduce confusion and wandering.

How many memory care communities are listed on this page?

This page features 57 memory care communities in Montana. Use the filters and comparison tools above to compare ratings, amenities, and pricing.

How do I choose the right memory care community in Montana?

Start by matching the level of care offered to the resident's current and anticipated needs, then compare licensing status, staff-to-resident ratios, recent inspection results, and pricing. Tour at least two or three communities in Montana, talk to current residents and families, and confirm what is included in the base rate versus billed as add-on services.

What should I look for when visiting memory care communities in Montana?

Pay attention to staff interactions with residents, cleanliness and odor, food quality at meal times, the activity calendar, and how questions about pricing and care plans are answered. Ask to see the most recent state inspection report, the move-out / level-of-care-change policy, and a sample monthly bill that lists every fee.
