🌏 MONGOLIA BOUND 2025! 🌏 For the 12th year, our Mongolia Bound team has set out for the National Center for Maternal and Child Health in Ulaanbaatar - continuing the legacy of Jonathan Soud, a courageous 12-year-old whose spirit inspires this mission every day. 💛

Though Jonathan’s life was cut short by leukemia, his impact lives on. Through the longstanding collaboration between Nemours and Wolfson Children’s Hospital, his legacy is changing the world for the better.

This year, our largest team yet—including specialists in Hematology/Oncology, neurology, pulmonology, endocrinology, GI, genetics, neurosurgery, pediatric surgery, dentistry, and nursing—is working alongside clinicians in Mongolia to share knowledge, strengthen care, and bring hope to children in need.

👉 Follow regular updates from the team and see how Jonathan’s memory has been transforming care 7,000 miles away for more than a decade: https://care4mongoliakids.wordpress.com/.

The Mongolia Bound program is 100% donor-supported through an endowment created by the Soud family. You can support these efforts now by donating through the link and noting “Jonathan Soud Endowment” in the comments: https://go.baptistjax.com/3R2dqga

September is ***dePrevention Awareness Month. Su***de is a leading cause of death among young people - but parents, caregivers, trusted adults and friends can all play a role in noticing warning signs and offering support. 🤝🧡 It's important to understand what puts children and teens at risk vs. factors that can protect them from su***de.

Youth su***de risk factors include a wide range of variables, many of which are outside of a youth’s control - such as a family history of depression or violence at home. Protective factors can decrease the likelihood that a young person will experience suicidal ideation and behaviors. These factors include things like stable relationships and access to mental health resources.

🚧 BREAKING GROUND: Today we celebrated the start of construction on our new four-story emergency and patient tower at and Wolfson Children's Hospital! This marks a major step forward in expanding and enhancing access to advanced care for adults and children in Northeast Florida when they need it most.

More patients receive emergency care at Baptist Health Jacksonville’s main campus than at any other hospital in the Jacksonville area. This new tower will significantly enhance the health system’s capacity to provide the highest level of care for a wide range of health needs, including chest pain, stroke, behavioral health crises, complex illnesses or injuries, pediatric trauma and more.

Named in honor of community philanthropists Debbie and Sutton McGehee Jr., whose transformative gift helped make the project possible, the 123,000-square-foot McGehee Family Tower will feature:

- Two separate emergency centers—one for adults and one designed to meet the special needs of children—waiting areas and 100 emergency patient rooms: 63 for adults and 37 for children, including three pediatric trauma rooms on the first floor;
- Dedicated imaging, laboratory and ancillary resources to support emergency and trauma services;
- A new endoscopy suite, shell space for new cardiac procedure rooms plus expanded areas for pre- and post-operative heart procedures on the second floor;
- Plans for a future expansion that will add 68 inpatient rooms on the third and fourth floors; and
- An upgraded emergency entrance designed for a streamlined arrival experience, with a prominent patient drop-off zone offering patients and their loved ones quick and easy access to care.

Designed with patients and their families in mind, the tower will elevate the patient experience by combining comfort and clinical efficiency in a care environment rooted in compassion.

“We wanted to make a lasting gift for our community that we have called home for generations,” said Debbie and Sutton McGehee. “We raised our kids here and our grandchildren are growing up here. Supporting this new patient and ER tower helps to make sure that Baptist Health and Wolfson Children’s Hospital can continue to care for current and future generations of families in the Jacksonville area.”

The new tower will open in phases, and is scheduled for completion in 2029. Learn more about the project and the McGehee Family's legacy of giving: https://go.baptistjax.com/4ndYTv2

PLEASE NOTE: Emergency rooms at Baptist Jacksonville and Wolfson Children’s Hospital will continue to remain open 24/7 throughout the entire duration of the construction project. Dedicated personnel and wayfinding signage are helping guide patients and their families to the emergency services they need.

Repost from one of our NICU moms, Lorrie: "We are forever grateful to the NICU nurses, doctors and specialists who cared for our boy. They are angels on Earth. The stays with you. The alarms, the wires, the hourly checks, the long hallway walks to and from your room. Thinking of all the mamas and babies who have walked a similar journey."

Stories like these remind us why we do what we do every day. When families share their NICU journey with us, it touches the hearts of every team member who was part of that precious baby's care. Lorrie, thank you for sharing your story in honor of and ! ❤️
