Baptist Health on Thursday announced a freestanding Baptist emergency room is now open at Nassau Crossing, at 462600 SR 200 in Yulee. The new ER brings life-saving health care services to central and western Nassau County.

Located just east of I-95 near Wildlight, the center will serve adults and children living in Yulee, Callahan, Hilliard and the rapidly expanding surrounding areas. Baptist says about 63,500 people live within a 15-minute drive of the new center, and by 2029, that number is expected to grow by 11.4%. With this in mind, the facility has been designed to allow for future expansion.

Emergency services for the whole family

The Baptist Nassau Crossing Emergency and Imaging Center in Yulee includes Wolfson Children’s pediatric emergency providers.

“We hope to bring peace of mind to parents and caregivers throughout the Nassau Crossing community, knowing that children are cared for by pediatric providers here who are part of Wolfson Children’s emergency network,” said Allegra C. Jaros, president of Wolfson Children’s, in a news release. “Our pediatric emergency teams here are trained to know how to recognize the subtle nuances of a child’s symptom, ensuring our most vulnerable populations receive access to care tailored especially for their unique needs.”

The Nassau Crossing ER also includes an adjoining imaging center for adults and children to provide X-rays, ultrasounds, CT scans, mammography and bone density screenings.

“No one plans on having an emergency,” said Tammy Daniel, senior vice president and chief nursing officer of Baptist Health. “But having timely access to expert care can save lives, prevent complications and bring peace of mind to patients and families.” 

New health care hub in Nassau County

Baptist Emergency and Imaging Center is the first facility to open on the new Baptist Nassau Crossing Medical Campus. Due for completion in December 2024, the complex will offer primary care, behavioral health and specialty physician offices, as well as the Borland Groover Medical Office and Nassau Crossing Endoscopy Center, offering colonoscopies, upper endoscopies, and infusion services to treat a range of autoimmune disorders such as Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis.

Baptist also operates Baptist Medical Center Nassau, about 13 miles east of the new freestanding ER.
