Cheney Care Center

Cheney Care Center is a skilled nursing facility located on North 6th Street in Cheney, Washington, a small college city in Spokane County known for its close-knit community feel, the presence of Eastern Washington University, and easy access to eastern Washington's wide-open landscapes. Cheney offers a quietly appealing environment for seniors and their families. While it retains the character of a compact college town — with the EWU campus bringing a lively, multigenerational energy — it also maintains the calm, unhurried pace that many older adults find comforting. The city's First Street corridor provides local dining options, a pharmacy, and essential services, and the surrounding Palouse landscape features rolling fields and clean air that contrast beautifully with the bustle of nearby Spokane, just 16 miles to the east via US-2 and I-90. For medical needs beyond on-site care, the Spokane metro area offers comprehensive hospital access, including Providence Sacred Heart Medical Center and MultiCare Deaconess Hospital — both reachable within roughly 25 minutes. The Turnbull National Wildlife Refuge, located just south of Cheney, is a treasured natural area that provides a peaceful backdrop for outdoor visits with family. Cheney Care Center is operated as a nonprofit, reflecting a deep commitment to the community it serves rather than a profit-driven model. Nonprofit-managed skilled nursing facilities often reinvest resources directly into resident care, staffing, and facility improvements. Residents benefit from skilled nursing support, rehabilitation therapy services, and a care team focused on helping each individual achieve their highest possible level of function and comfort. For families seeking skilled nursing care in a welcoming, small-city setting with nonprofit values and access to Spokane-area resources, Cheney Care Center represents a meaningful choice.
