Richland Center, WI – In January, a year-long facility renovation project will begin at The Richland Hospital and Clinics (TRHC).  Issues critical to meet 21st century standards of care will be addressed by this $7.8 million renovation. “These improvements allow TRHC to continue to provide exceptional patient-centered care without expanding the facility footprint,” TRHC CEO Bruce Roesler explains.

Initially, the TRHC Board of Directors and Executive Management Team (EMT) had planned for a replacement facility. However, that plan was delayed 8-10 years due to the increase in construction and material costs and not being able to design a building that would meet patient and staff needs while staying within budget.

Over the past year, planning sessions have been held to discuss and determine what improvements, repairs, and modifications to the existing facility need to occur. The “must do” scope is identified as:

TRHC has retained the following project partners: BWBR as architect/design firm; Market & Johnson, Inc. as construction manager; and, MedCraft Healthcare Real Estate as project manager.  The project is expected to continue through January of 2026 with little to no interruption to patient services.

The Richland Hospital and Clinics is a nationally awarded health care facility dedicated to caring, educating, and healing. Providing compassionate care for 100 years to residents of the greater Richland County area, TRHC operates an independent, integrated group medical practice in three locations, including rural health clinics in Spring Green and Muscoda and a critical access hospital at its primary location in Richland Center, WI.
