See how parenteral nutrition is made
09/08/2019
We are delighted to offer a unique experience to existing PINNT memebrs, in partnership with Baxter
As part of HAN week, Baxter is offering existing PINNT parenteral nutrition (TPN/HPN) members the opportunity to visit the Baxter Thetford Compounding unit. We hope this will raise awareness of how a bag of parenteral nutrition is made; how technical it is and who makes it!
The venue will be: Baxter Healthcare Manufacturing - Thetford, Caxton Way,
Thetford, Norfolk IP24 3SE
Baxter has confirmed that you
do not need to be one of their homecare patients to apply.
Places are very limited; they have a busy schedule to meet, lots of parenteral nutrition and IV fluids need to be made. We are working within what they have kindly made available for PINNT.
Dates are not confimed yet but to offer an expression of interest in attending and being sent further information, please email:
