And the Baptists I know, for instance,if gravely injured at the scene of a catasttrophe, wouldn't be looking for a final Confession to a clergyman, an anointing with blessed oils, or Viaticum.But any Christian would welcome the prayers of another Christian, regardless of denomination in their time of peril and need.

"But any Christian would welcome the prayers of another Christian, regardless of denomination in their time of peril and need." AMEN TO THAT! It bears repeating. If I were gravely hurt, in peril, in shock, I would appreciate any nearby human being taking my hand and starting a prayer to Our Lord. And
I'm glad you pointed it out. In extremis, we don't quibble about theology: we are looking for a kindly touch, human or Divine.
