Hardin Memorial Hospital North Tower
Kelly Hart serves as a Project Manager at JRA Architects with a focus on healthcare design, including new construction, additions, and complex renovations. He is known for developing trusted, long-standing relationships with hospital administrators, facility directors, department heads, and clinical staff. These direct connections allow him to respond quickly and effectively to evolving facility needs across hospital and medical office building (MOB) campuses.
Whether it’s reconfiguring existing space, planning for future expansion, or evaluating the impact of operational changes on Life Safety compliance, he is often the first call when healthcare teams need guidance. These early conversations can range from simple idea exchanges to comprehensive design and construction projects.
In addition to architectural design and project oversight, he manages Life Safety drawings for multiple hospital campuses—critical documentation required for CMS certification. Several clients also rely on him to conduct on-site mock Life Safety surveys, helping identify and resolve potential deficiencies before official inspections occur.
His role blends technical expertise, design leadership, and a hands-on approach to project delivery, making him a trusted partner for healthcare facilities navigating constant change.
