Mahaska Health is a high performing rural hospital with a desire to expand to increase hospital revenue and fund upkeep and recruitment of medical professionals and specialists to serve the community.

The Master Planning process started with a Facility Assessment of all building systems to identify code compliance, short term maintenance issues, and ability to support Master Plan initiatives for major renovations and building addition. Several intensive workshops were then conducted involving CMAR, Architect, KCL Engineering, Mahaska Health staff, and owner’s rep to identify how to reconfigure and add onto the hospital to meet their operational goals.

Project prioritization, sequencing, and funding alignment resulted in a seven-phase Master Plan which includes department relocations, building circulation revisions, site circulation improvements, new main entrance, ED renovation and addition, and surgery expansion.
