The KEDbluestone team was proud to attend the groundbreaking celebration for Buena Vista Regional Medical Center’s new Medical Office Building. We’re excited to be part of a project that will support expanded healthcare services for the community.
Projects like these represent more than new construction, they create spaces that support patients, providers, and future growth. We’re grateful for the collaboration with @invisionarchitecture and @grahamconstruction3g and appreciate the opportunity to work alongside such a strong project team. We look forward to seeing the vision come to life.

As MEP/T engineers, we design spaces that perform when it matters most. That approach shaped our work on the Emergency Department renovation at St. Mary Medical Center, where minimizing disruption and downtime was critical.
