Blair Missouri River Medical Supply Hub – US‑30 Bioindustrial Corridor
Blair anchors Washington County’s hospital network, Cargill bioindustrial campus, Blair Community Schools, Fort Calhoun homeland security training, and Missouri River levee districts. Our LAC Health counter inside Walmart #4568 at 1882 Holly Street keeps Memorial Community Hospital & Health System, Blair Clinic, Methodist Physicians, Cargill/Purac bioindustrial plants, Fort Calhoun Fire, Washington County EMA, and regional agribusinesses stocked without relying on Omaha traffic.
Within 30 miles are Methodist Women’s Hospital, CHI Health Immanuel, Children’s Nebraska, Cargill’s Blair campus, Fort Calhoun’s energy training site, Tekamah and Kennard rural EMS, DeSoto National Wildlife Refuge, and the US‑75/US‑30 logistics belt. River flooding, ice storms, ethanol turnarounds, and College World Series surges require a “medical suppliers near me” lane that understands levee ICS—this Holly Street hub leads.
Blair transitioned from ferry town to bioindustrial powerhouse supporting Cargill, Corbion, Novozymes, and sustainable aviation fuel research. LAC Health supports that transformation with generator-backed cold rooms, bilingual (English/Spanish) documentation, and workflows aligned with Washington County EMA, Missouri River Recovery Program, and Region 5/6 Healthcare Coalitions.
