Discharge Management​

“The patient requires different therapeutic procedures in hospital, some of which have to be continued on an outpatient basis. But what happens after the patient is discharged from hospital? There is a gap in care which has to be closed. I am glad I can place my patients in the hands of B. Braun and its care network after they have been discharged.”
