BayCare is expanding access to its clinically excellent emergency care with plans to build a new freestanding emergency department in Davenport, Florida, the health system announced today. The 12,000-square-foot facility at the southeast corner of U.S. Highway 27 and Ridgewood Lakes Boulevard will house 15 spaces for treating patients. In September 2024, BayCare announced plans for a freestanding emergency department in partnership with Metro Development Group’s master-planned Connected City community in Wesley Chapel, followed in December by plans for another location in South Lakeland. Last month, BayCare also unveiled plans for a facility in Valrico.
