About Baptist Health
Baptist Health’s care for the community spans generations. Together, we’re the largest group of people in Northeast Florida focused on innovative health care for patients, improving the health equity of our neighbors, and creating a welcoming workplace for team members where everyone’s voice is heard.
-
We’re a Family
When caring for people is in your DNA, caring for each other just comes naturally. Whether we’re celebrating a team member’s birthday in the breakroom, you’re getting support from our spiritual care team after a difficult case, or receiving a message from leadership with understanding that world events affect us all, we’re a family that supports, listens and cares.
-
Everybody’s Welcome
With 14,000+ team members, that’s a lot of differences, and we celebrate them all. Baptist Health is committed to a culture of inclusion, respect and empathy, where differences and new ideas makes us stronger, and all people feel valued. One way we do this is by bringing together those who share common interests or life experiences through 10+ Employee Resource Groups, including young professionals, physicians, advanced practice professionals, veterans, BaptistPRIDE, BaptistBOLD and more.
