The 23,879-square-foot emergency center features two emergency centers under one roof –Baptist Emergency Center for adults and Wolfson Children’s Emergency Center designed specifically for patients ages 0 to 17. With the opening of this campus, families in Nassau County will have easier access to the specialized pediatric care of Wolfson Children’s, the only full-service children’s hospital in the region and the only state-designated Pediatric Trauma Center in Northeast Florida. The emergency facility will have an adjoining Imaging Center for outpatient imaging, equipped with the latest technology to provide X-rays, ultrasounds, CT scans, mammography and bone density screenings. The building is designed with the opportunity for future expansion as the community’s need for emergency services increases. A 32,094-square-foot medical office building will be located behind the emergency center. Initially, the medical office building will house Baptist Primary Care and Baptist Behavioral Health, with the potential to add other specialty services. The Emergency & Imaging Center and medical office building, a $38 million investment for the health system, is scheduled to open in early 2024.
