About The Grandview at Benefis

The Grandview at Benefis is a 48-bed skilled nursing and long-term care community in Great Falls, Montana, situated near a hospital and surgery center with landscaped grounds and modern facilities.

Families consistently praise the nursing and direct care staff for their attentiveness and warmth. Multiple families highlighted staff members by name, noting they made residents feel valued rather than like another patient. The community offers numerous activities, a beautiful physical layout with artwork and patios suitable for gatherings, and meals that families describe as delicious. One family wrote that it was "the absolute best place" for their mother at the end of her life.

A few families raised concerns about medical oversight and administrative responsiveness, one reported difficulty reaching appropriate departments by phone, and another described a delay in physician response to a resident's urgent care needs. These gaps suggest the facility's strength lies in day-to-day care and environment rather than across all operational areas.

The Grandview holds a 4.3 out of 5 Google rating based on 15 reviews, with strong marks for atmosphere and staff but mixed experiences around clinical decision-making and front-desk communication.

When calling to speak to patients currently residing at Grandview I was continuously transferred to the wrong department and spoken to in a very rude manner so much so that I ended up hanging up and just calling their family members. They need to work on their phone etiquette

My Grandpa was put into Grandview a few months ago. The nurses were nice. Dr Marler was negligent. My grandpa wasn’t feeling well and asked to see him on Monday. He was supposed to come in on Tuesday. My grandpa’s legs were weeping fluid, smelled terrible, and he was weak and failing. We asked for wound care. We asked for his wraps to be changed and his blood work to be done. The doctor didn’t come until Friday. He said he was fine. My grandpa ended up with septic shock on Saturday. He died 2 days later in the ICU. I relied on medical professionals to do their jobs, they failed due to negligence, and ignorance. I’m disgusted and heartbroken.

My mother moved to The Grandview the end of October 2022 when her health declined rapidly resulting in her need for additional care. Mom received the best, most attentive care from Nick, Jo, Ti and Marcel, in particular, as well as the rest of the staff. Michelle is very friendly and welcoming. It was the absolute best place for Mom to be at the end of her life.

Excellent choice for your loved one!! Many activities. It seems like a huge resort. The food is DELICIOUS. Nice patio for get togethers with bbq. Beautiful artwork. Laid out quite nicely around the hospital and the surgery center. Nicely landscaped. Residents may have visits with their pets (vaccinations current of course) call and get a tour. It's just the place
