OUR MISSION: To fulfill President Lincoln's promise - "To care for him who shall have borne the battle and for his widow, and his orphan" - by serving and honoring the men and women who are America's Veterans. How would you like to become a part of a team providing compassionate care to Veterans?
Montana VA has served veterans since the end of World War I, when Fort William Henry Harrison became a Public Health Service hospital and
then VA medical facility, treating soldiers with tuberculosis caused by mustard gas and other chemicals and fumes. Today, half of the almost
100,000 Veterans that call Montana home, are enrolled in the Montana VA Health Care System, which provides services in every major city in the
state through eleven community based clinics, two telehealth outreach clinics, the Fort Harrison VA Medical Center (VAMC), the Billings Health
Care Center, and the Miles City Community Living Center. Fort Harrison VAMC, just outside of Helena, is a 24-bed acute care, medical-surgical
facility that offers a broad range of acute, chronic, and specialized inpatient, outpatient, and telemedicine services for both male and female
Veterans. The 24-bed Behavioral Health facility provides services for patients needing treatment for PTSD and Substance Abuse.
