About Us

California hospitals are considered to be among the most complex buildings in the world to design, remodel and maintain. Hospitals provide patient care 24 hours a day, every day, year after year. The state has developed rigorous hospital building standards and procedures to ensure that hospital facilities will meet the needs of both patients and staff.

Beyond hospital construction needs, our planning team works endlessly to remodel and refurbish existing facilities and infrastructure.

Planning Administration provides the planning, skill and commitment required to continually meet the construction and design needs at our medical center.

We are committed to providing a safe environment, enhancing patient care and delivering functional quality within time and budget constraints.
