Baxter's team in the UK were honored to host a visit by Dr Anneliese Dodds MP (Oxford East), to our aseptic compounding facility in Oxford. Lindsey Hilton, Baxter’s Pharmaceuticals Business Lead UK, Ireland and Nordics said: “Baxter is proud to be part of the important Independent Aseptic Compounders sector group at BSNA, that has the shared goal to ensure that patients have access to the products they need. We have been providing aseptic compounding services in the UK for over 35 years and were delighted to be able to showcase our facility and demonstrate our commitment.” The visit was organized in partnership with the BSNA as part of ongoing engagement to raise awareness of the Independent Aseptic Compounders sector as a valued partner of the NHS in ensuring that patient specific treatment needs are met. It provided the opportunity to demonstrate the process of how medicines are manufactured in an aseptic controlled environment before being transported to hospitals for patient use. #SaveAndSustainLives
According to the American Red Cross, every two seconds someone in the U.S. needs blood and platelets for surgery, chronic illnesses, traumatic injuries and more. To spotlight the importance of blood donations, January is recognized as National Blood Donor Month. Last week, we hosted a blood drive at our Deerfield, Ill. headquarters to help meet the demand. One donation can lead to more than one life being saved and make a world of a difference for those in need. Thank you to all who donated blood, we’re proud to support patient health and #SaveAndSustainLives.
Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. once said, "Life's most persistent and urgent question is, 'What are you doing for others?'"
