Mountrail County Medical Center Expansion

The Mountrail County Health Center campus in Stanley, North Dakota, underwent a multi year, $53 million expansion and renovation designed to enhance healthcare services across the region. The campus includes a hospital, emergency room, clinic, nursing home, assisted living apartments, and an aquatic center.

Hunt Electric provided electrical construction, generator services, and ongoing service and maintenance support throughout the campus as part of this comprehensive modernization effort.

The project improved multiple areas of the healthcare campus, including hospital facilities, long term care housing, and assisted living accommodations. By upgrading key clinical spaces and expanding residential care capacity, the project supports growing community demand while improving operational efficiency for healthcare providers.

The work included both new construction and major renovations, requiring careful coordination to maintain functionality within an active healthcare environment.

Hunt Electric delivered electrical infrastructure improvements across several major areas of the campus.
