Sacred and very small, no-fuss, community hot springs pool (capacity for 8 to 10 people), is…read morefrequented by locals and those who live within driving distance to this venue. Big Medicine hot springs pool is lovingly cared for and provided to the local community and visitors by the generous and thoughtful efforts of a local native family and various members of their Salish and Kootenai tribes. If you come here, please keep this in mind and respect the property, intention, and environment that this is offered in. Swimsuits are required to enter and use the hot pool. Absolutely no pets or dogs are allowed on the premises, as sometimes wild deer and their baby fawns pass through and feed off the nearby vegetation and plenty of small birds perch on the nearby trees, bushes, and flowers. No smoking, glass bottles, nor drinking any alcohol either. And no application or use of any oils/creams/lotions/scents/salves/sunscreen before you enter the small pool, as those things can and will contaminate and spread into the hot water and affect the experience for all the other people who are there to use and enjoy this pool during and after you. There is an outdoor shower that sometimes works (sometimes doesn't) for people to rinse off before they enter the pool. To be prepared, some people just shower at home or where they're staying offsite, before arriving here. When you arrive, I recommend you check the water temperature to be sure it is within your range of comfort and bearability (since it can vary by day and hour, as the water is fed directly into the pool from the local aquifer). Pay $5 per person and put it into the slit of the metal lockbox at the walkway entrance next to the parking spots. It is in front and under the signs on the left of this walkway. There's numerous hooks to hang your beach/bath towels around the pool, which is half covered by a metal roof. There's also bench seating and a couple plastic chairs around the pool and surrounding grounds, with 1 wooden picnic table bench steps from the hot pool. There's also a bathroom shack with a non-flushable toilet and no toilet paper (note: out of courtesy, you will need to pour a bucket of water into the toilet after you do your business in there). Also keep in mind that there's only space for about 4 to 6 parking spots. And Big Medicine is open from about 8am to sunset. There's also about 3 small, basic and rustic wood cabins (with a port-a-potty) on the property about a 3-5 minute walk away, for overnight stays. I believe they are about $35/night, but are first come, first served.

I have been in to the plains hospital a few times already and depending on who you see may vary in…read morehow well you are treated. The thing I don't understand is when the bill comes it doesn't come with a good explanation of what was done. I had two xrays taken that took only seconds on each hand and I received a email for payment in which I paid it. Now I see I have a new bill for the same xray visit with a much larger payment. I never received an actual bill for either. One came in email form and one I found in MyChart. I don't understand the billing situation. I also pay everything out of pocket. Some things I see I get a discount for and other things I don't. This is the only hospital near by so going farther takes more time and if its an emergency we have the one option. I can't say I feel I have received the care I would expect from a hospital. But after talking to other people they say this is the new normal. It doesn't give me any confidence at all to be seen at a place where i am not considered important or my health issues aren't important. My husband on the other hand received very good care. He is a veteran. Is that the difference? Because the VA paid for the care he received? And since I have no insurance I am treated as though I have zero value? Nothing at the hospital is cheap or fairly priced for anyone. If you have insurance some may be paid for but are you treated well??? It is actually alarming to go to a hospital and not be treated well when you are there for serious conditions. I have not always been called on lab work and had to call on my own or send a message from MyChart inquiring about them. Our health care system is so screwed up. It is not about the patient at all. It is about the money coming from what the patient has charged to their account. What are we supposed to do when we have a health issue and don't receive good care and just a large bill we struggle to pay??? We go home and live with the issue instead of someone caring enough to figure out what is wrong and treating people with care and concern. I just had some new blood work done and the results were never sent to the Dr I chose to see out side of the hospital. The Dr called me and asked if I had received them and I said yes and he stated he has never had them sent to him. That is not right. I don't know how you propose to change the publics mind on the hospital if other people are going through the same things I have been going through. But, we should NEVER be going through this. The hospital is there to take care of people. Not treat them poorly and also take their money. This is crazy. I thought a small town would take better care of their community. Apparently not??? I don't get it at all. Very disappointing.
