About The Living Centre

+
Nestled in the heart of Stevensville, Montana — the oldest town in the state — The Living Centre provides skilled nursing care in one of the most naturally beautiful settings in the American West. Situated on Main Street, residents enjoy the charm of a close-knit community surrounded by the stunning peaks of the Bitterroot Range and the gentle flow of the Bitterroot River just steps away. As a skilled nursing facility, The Living Centre delivers comprehensive, medically-focused care for residents who require 24-hour nursing supervision, post-acute rehabilitation, chronic disease management, and complex medical support. The professional care team coordinates closely with physicians and specialists to ensure each resident's clinical needs are met with precision and compassion. The Bitterroot Valley setting offers families and residents a remarkable quality of life outside the clinical setting. The Lee Metcalf National Wildlife Refuge, located just north of town, provides world-class wildlife viewing and peaceful natural scenery. The historic Fort Owen State Park — marking the very founding of Montana — is within walking distance, giving residents and visiting families a meaningful connection to the region's rich heritage. The nearby Bitterroot National Forest opens up miles of trails and natural beauty that define Montana living. For medical needs, Marcus Daly Memorial Hospital in Hamilton (approximately 15 miles south) serves as the primary regional hospital, with more specialized care available at St. Patrick Hospital in Missoula, roughly 25 miles to the north. Families traveling to visit will find Missoula's airport convenient for out-of-town guests. Stevensville's small-town character means residents and their families are never far from local favorites — the Stevi Café, local shops along Main Street, and community events that reflect the warmth of Bitterroot Valley life. For a corporate-operated facility, The Living Centre maintains the attentive, individualized approach that families rely on when placing a loved one in skilled nursing care, with a commitment to both clinical excellence and genuine human connection.

What should families expect when transitioning a loved one to skilled nursing care at The Living Centre? +

The transition to skilled nursing typically begins with a care assessment to document medical history, current conditions, and goals of care. The team will coordinate with your loved one's physicians and, if applicable, with a hospital discharge planner. Families are encouraged to visit, ask about daily schedules, staffing ratios, therapy services, and how the team communicates with family members about care plan changes. Bringing personal items to make the room feel familiar can ease the adjustment significantly.
