"The idea of home care is for patients to live their lives.
Whatever the equipment, whatever the treatment, it must fit in with our patients' lifestyles.
BD innovation very much supports both nurses and patients."

YOUR THERAPY-SPECIFIC CARE
Our homecare solutions were developed to cover all needs across the following key therapies:
Malnutrition is a major clinical condition that can arise from various causes including gastrointestinal dysfunctions, surgery or cancer. Patients with wide ranging medical conditions rely on the use of total parenteral nutrition (TPN). However, TPN infusion pumps can sometimes compromise the patient’s quality of life by giving them less independence or mobility.
BD’s comprehensive TPN solution can provide a minimal impact to your patient’s lifestyle while helping improve safety and flexible expectations

Discharging patients from the hospital to finish long antibiotic treatments at home is a practice that not only saves costs for the institution, but also allows the patient to regain a sense of freedom. IV antibiotics gain faster access to the blood by bypassing the gastrointestinal tract. They are often clinically perceived as being the most effective way to quickly administer treatments for infections in the lungs, bones and brain or to treat patients with chronic conditions such as cystic fibrosis.
The BD IV antibiotic solution can help your patient stay safe while maintaining some mobility.
Immunoglobulin therapy is a life saving treatment given to patients with impaired immune systems.3 Immunoglobulin is a blood product used to treat both primary immunodeficiencies (such as genetic or hereditary immune deficiency disorders) or secondary immunodeficiencies (due to chemotherapy damage, HIV or malnutrition).
BD offers a broad solution to help satisfy your IV immunoglobulin therapy needs. Our offering enables your patients to receive accurate and reliable treatment, while maintaining a sense of normalcy and freedom.
Palliative care refers to the specialised medical treatment and care that is provided to people living with a serious illness.4 Typically, this type of care is focused on relieving the patient’s symptoms as well as the stress that they may be experiencing. Any child or adult who has a serious or life-threatening illness such as cancer, neurological, heart failure or other disorders may receive this type of care. Usually, patients can receive treatment at home surrounded by their loved ones to gain an improved quality of life.
