Overview of Timbers and Reflections at the Grandview at Benefis

The Grandview at Benefis has been open for three years now, sitting at 3015 18th Ave S in Great Falls, Montana. It’s a 71-bed community, administered by David Krebs, and it covers three levels of care under one roof: assisted living, nursing home care, and memory care. The neighborhood itself is car-dependent territory, with a Walk Score of 26, so most errands are going to mean driving rather than walking.

Great Falls Clinic Hospital sits just 0.17 miles away, close enough that in a real emergency, the distance barely factors in. That’s worth weighing seriously for anyone comparing options where hospital access could matter.

Because assisted living, nursing home care, and memory care all exist in the same building, a resident can move between them as needs change, without a family having to restart the search for a new placement somewhere else. That kind of built-in continuity tends to matter most exactly when you’re not expecting to need it.

Registered nurses provide 2 hours and 8 minutes of care per resident each day, and nurse aides add another 2 hours and 16 minutes. There’s also physical therapy on-site, at 19 minutes per resident per day.

The Grandview at Benefis is a newer facility that’s leaned hard into flexibility: three care levels in one location, a hospital close enough to matter, and staffing that reflects real day-to-day clinical presence. For a family anticipating that a resident’s needs might shift over time, that combination of continuity and proximity is a very useful thing.

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 64 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.
