Rural at Heart.
Advanced in Care.
Daniels Memorial Healthcare Center is proud to serve Daniels County as a not-for-profit, 25-bed Critical Access Hospital with a Rural Health Clinic and 24-hour emergency care.
Located in Scobey, Montana, we are considered a “frontier” facility in a medically underserved area—but what could be seen as a challenge has become one of our greatest strengths. Through community support, federal funding, and strategic partnerships, we’ve built a healthcare system that delivers reliable, high-quality care close to home.
Rooted in Community
Daniels Memorial was built by this community—and continues to be supported by it today. Since its beginnings in 1944, local residents have shown unwavering support through donations, mill levies, and advocacy, ensuring that quality healthcare remains accessible in this rural region. Over the decades, the hospital has grown through multiple expansions and renovations, always with one goal in mind: to better serve the people who call this place home.
Stronger Together
Daniels Memorial is the second-largest employer in Daniels County and is governed by a community-based Board of Directors.
We also maintain a strategic partnership with Billings Clinic in Billings, Montana. This relationship strengthens our ability to recruit leadership, manage operations, and access broader resources—ensuring we continue to deliver high-quality care while remaining deeply rooted in our community.
