Indian Health Service has provided health care at the Northern Cheyenne Reservation since 1955. Initially services were shared by both the Crow and Northern Cheyenne. The Northern Cheyenne Service Unit is a beautiful, modern ambulatory care facility in Southeastern Montana that offers outpatient care as well as 24 hour urgent care to approximately 6300 enrolled patients. We have 5 family physicians, a pediatrician and two nurse practitioners that staff our ambulatory and urgent care facilities. Weekends and major holidays are covered by locum tenens. Services also provided include Optometry, Dental, Physical Therapy and Behavioral Health with a full service lab and radiology open during clinic hours. In addition, we have expanded hours of operation with clinic and ancillary services open until 7:00 pm. Our facility is located in Lame Deer, a small community surrounded by pine covered hills. For the outdoor enthusiasts, there are numerous places to hike, mountain bike, or fish on the reservation. Custer National Forest is adjacent to the reservation for outdoor activities as well as hunting. Colstrip, a small community 20 minutes from the reservation has national recognition as an outstanding place to live and work. Billings, the largest city in Montana is less than 2 hours away and offers big city amenities. We take great pride in delivering compassionate care to our patients. Respecting that our Native patients still embrace their native culture allows for a better patient-provider relationship. When the new clinic was built, a Healing Room for traditional ceremonies was included in the plans. The service unit is about 63,000 square feet and includes a staff of over 100 to help serve those needs. We have fully embraced the Electronic Health Record. We are pro-active with an enthusiastic and dedicated administrative and clinical staff that continually seeks to improve the delivery of health care. The Northern Cheyenne Service Unit is accredited by Accreditation Association for bulatory Health Care (AAAHC). We invite you to take a look at our facility and meet our staff at your earliest convenience.
Mission Statement
The Northern Cheyenne Service Unit, in partnership with the Northern Cheyenne Community, strives to raise their physical, mental, social and spiritual health to the highest level using the principles of “the patient comes first” with a focus on health care and health promotion, in a culturally sensitive manner while empowering the individual.
