About Birchwood
In the 1960s, the hospital Board of Directors determined that a residential community for active seniors would be an important service to Bozeman. They built the original Hillcrest Senior Living community. Our history and reputation for providing service excellence in healthcare, facilities and operations speaks for itself. Many services at the hospital are shared with Hillcrest, providing a solid financial base and staffing resources that residents rely on. Proof of this is a number of second-generation residents who call our neighborhood home. Financial security, safety, peace of mind and a trusted reputation for the finest in senior living are the hallmark at Hillcrest.
