Feeling parched?

Well, you’re not alone. Hospitals across the country are dealing with a saline shortage.

Thanks to Hurricane Helene’s unwelcome visit to the Baxter International facility in North Carolina, your IV bags may be running low. Imagine a busy highway suddenly reduced to a single lane: that’s what this IV shortage feels like for impacted healthcare providers.

During the next live edition of the long-running and popular live Internet radio program Talk Ten Tuesday, Dr. Nick van Terheyden will report on just about everything related to this topic, from switching to oral meds (because who needs a needle when you can swallow?) to challenging those pesky “keep the veins open” (KVO) orders (seriously, do you really need to keep those veins open all the time?)

Join Talk Ten Tuesdays and leave feeling hydrated and empowered!
