Community Involvement

"The people of Baptist Health have always given of their time and energy to countless efforts in the community outside of their regular work. They are the backbone of our organization, and through these initiatives, we want to continue to recognize, support and applaud all they do."

 

As a locally created and governed organization, Baptist Health has always sought to improve the community's health, both inside and outside our hospital walls. Whether through health screenings, public education or service to underserved populations, the people of Baptist are proud to have helped save lives and improve the quality of life throughout Northeast Florida.

A sample of community-based initiatives we support include:

• Heart Walk
• Speaking of Women's Health
• Health Screenings and Fairs
• Buddy Check 12
• Tipping the Scale (youth mentoring program)
• partnership with The Bridge of Northeast Florida, Inc.
• United Way of NE Florida
• Blood Drives (on campus)
• RealSense for Prosperity Campaign
