Benefis Healthcare in Great Falls, Montana, dedicated its Native American Welcoming Center on Tuesday.
The 1,200-square-foot center is a place for Native families can meet and pray while their loved ones receive care at the hospital. It will serve as a contact point for reservation hospitals.
As part of the effort, the hospital has hired Victoria Augare as its first Native American patient advocate. She will help Native patients and their families.
