Livingston Hospital

Faced with aging infrastructure and complex funding questions, Livingston HealthCare—like many critical access hospitals—was at a crossroads. To deliver better care and meet the evolving needs of its community, the organization needed a solution that balanced clinical goals with financial responsibility.

Following a thorough condition assessment and site evaluation, the decision was made to build a new facility on a more suitable location. ERDMAN partnered with Livingston HealthCare to define guiding principles that would shape every step of the process—from planning through design and delivery. Leveraging evidence-based design strategies, the team created spaces that enhance patient experience, streamline care delivery, and improve staff satisfaction.

The resulting facility is cost-effective, sustainable, and rooted in local character, offering expansive views of the surrounding mountains. With this new critical access hospital, Livingston HealthCare is equipped to grow with its community—delivering care that reflects both place and purpose.
