As the region's leading specialty hospital, we care for individuals who have survived serious illness, trauma, or surgery but require extended recovery time and a higher level of medical attention than typically provided in a traditional hospital setting.
Our dual mission includes both long-term acute care and comprehensive inpatient rehabilitation.

Our rehabilitation program includes Physical Therapy (PT), Occupational Therapy (OT), and Speech-Language Pathology (SLP), tailored to each patient's unique goals for recovery. With all private rooms and a highly skilled team-including physicians, ICU/critical care nurses and respiratory therapists, -we deliver individualized, compassionate care that supports both medical stability and functional progress.
Advanced Care Hospital of Montana is Joint Commission accredited and nationally recognized for quality care.
