Pediatric Trauma Center Coming to New Baptist Health Center
One of the nation’s leading healthcare systems, Baptist Health has announced plans for a new medical campus just east of I-95 along Florida 200. Located less than three miles from Tributary, the new facility will include a free-standing Emergency Center with two separate units under one roof – The Baptist Emergency Center for adults, and Wolfson Children’s Emergency Center for patients up to 17 years old. The Wolfson Children’s Center is the only state-designed Pediatric Trauma Center in Northeast Florida. Behind the emergency center, a medical office building will house primary care and behavioral health services, with the potential to add other specialty services in the future. Baptist Health anticipates breaking ground very soon, with plans to open in early 2024.
