About Sheridan Memorial Nursing Home

+
Sheridan Memorial Nursing Home, located at 440 West Laurel Avenue in Plentywood, Montana, is a trusted skilled nursing facility serving the residents of Sheridan County and the broader northeastern corner of the state. Operated as a nonprofit corporation, this community-anchored facility has long been a cornerstone of health services in one of Montana's most rural regions. The facility provides comprehensive skilled nursing services including round-the-clock licensed nursing care, rehabilitative therapy, wound care, post-hospitalization recovery, and long-term residential placement for seniors with complex medical needs. The staff understands the unique needs of rural Montana families — many of whom have lived and farmed this land for generations — and care is delivered with the respect and dignity that residents have earned over lifetimes of hard work. Plentywood sits near the confluence of the Big Muddy Creek and the Montana-Saskatchewan border, making it one of the most remote county seats in the contiguous United States. This northeastern Montana prairie community is characterized by wide-open skies, golden wheat fields, and the quiet rhythms of agricultural life. Despite its rural setting, Plentywood is self-sufficient in many respects. Sheridan Memorial Hospital, adjacent to the nursing home, ensures that residents requiring acute medical care can transition to hospital-level services without lengthy transport. Downtown Plentywood offers a pharmacy, local diners, and essential shops along Highway 16. For families living elsewhere who have loved ones at Sheridan Memorial Nursing Home, the proximity to the hospital provides significant peace of mind. The Medicine Lake National Wildlife Refuge, located about 30 miles to the south, is a remarkable natural landmark, home to vast migratory bird populations — a wonderful destination for families visiting the area. Sheridan Memorial Nursing Home remains one of the few skilled nursing options in this vast region, and its nonprofit mission ensures that high-quality care remains accessible to Sheridan County's senior population regardless of the distances involved.
