Nearly one year ago, Hurricane Helene struck North Carolina, severely damaging and interrupting production of critical healthcare products at our largest U.S. manufacturing site. In the year since, the Baxter team has demonstrated extraordinary resilience -- working tirelessly to protect our people, support the larger community, and keep critical therapies moving to patients who depend on them. From rapid emergency preparedness to leveraging our global manufacturing network and investing in advanced technology, the lessons from Helene's impact have made us stronger than ever.

Last week at the Conveho conference in London, we shared how Connected Care is transforming hospital workflows. In her talk, "One Step Ahead: Real Stories of Connected Care in Action," Vanessa Counaert, Head of Connected Care Western Europe at Baxter, shared three key lessons from the field: ☑️ Think in trilogies: Technology, Data, and People. Technology and data only create value when teams truly adopt them. ☑️ Break the Silos:. Moving from fragmented data collection to a centralized approach empowers teamwork and enhances adoption. ☑️ Show, Don’t Just Tell: Concrete workflow help hospitals see what’s possible and adapt solutions to their own context. A big thank you to the organizers and participants for the engaging discussions. #ConnectedCare #Baxter #SaveAndSustainLives #DigitalHealth

Education and training of young surgeons, 'The Chiefs of Tomorrow', is key to shaping the future of care. Over the last two weeks our Advanced Surgery teams were focused on the field of neurosurgery bringing together professionals, experts and young surgeons across multiple locations in Europe. This was an innovative approach to help support training for neurosurgeons, offering new training concepts, introducing our portfolio and advancing the way surgical education is delivered. The exchange of knowledge, skills and experience will have a long-lasting impact for both participants and for patients. ✔️ Workshop 1-SINch (Brescia, Italy): Turning the booth into a live training hub! ✔️ Workshop 2-Society of British Neurological Surgeons (Bristol, UK): An experience to help understand our product portfolio and what can be used where in Neurosurgery ✔️ Workshop 3: Masterclass Basic Neurosurgery (Nürnberg, Germany) An event that combined theoretical trainings and hands-on sessions. Huge thanks to all teams and attendees who made these events a success!

Today, we celebrated the opening of a new permanent bridge at our North Cove, NC., manufacturing plant. Just over a year ago, Hurricane Helene devastated the community disrupting lives, critical healthcare production and access to the plant. Thanks to the resilience of our employees, local leaders and partners, we’ve rebuilt stronger than ever. A special thank you to the North Carolina Department Of Transportation for their partnership in rebuilding the permanent bridge that ensures safe access for our teams, reliable delivery for patients, and continued growth for our community. #NorthCoveStrong

In the face of crisis, our mission to Save and Sustain Lives carries even greater weight. Hurricane Helene's devastation last fall stole the lives of more than 100 people in North Carolina - including a member of the Baxter community. In memory of Melissa, her husband and parents share their story: bit.ly/46GuRJk
