Home parenteral nutrition
We are a market leader in the provision of home parenteral nutrition (HPN) for adults and children.
We support over 1,000 patients, with training for them and their carers, or providing daily nursing visits to administer nutrition and associated treatments.
We know how to provide home parenteral nutrition safely at home
HPN is a specialised medical therapy that provides life-sustaining nutrition and hydration directly into the bloodstream.
It is essential for patients with acute or chronic intestinal failure who cannot meet their nutritional needs through oral or enteral (tube) feeding.
Our skilled team ensures patients are trained to safely administer treatment.
