Supply Chain Planner
“At this stage in my career, I want to do meaningful work. It’s fulfilling to me that every product we make at our North Cove facility reaches and helps someone who is having health challenges. I am currently recovering from major surgery. During a recent hospital stay, I was given at least two different products made at North Cove. I was excited to use products made by people I know; it’s motivating to contribute my small part of our larger team mission.”
Merry Wright, Supply Chain Planner
Distribution Manager
“Baxter products have had a direct impact on my family's lives. Last year my sister was admitted to the hospital with an unknown illness. She became very dehydrated which affected a lot of other things in her body. While the doctors were working to determine what was causing this, Baxter IV solutions were keeping her hydrated and restoring certain bodily functions. I was able to determine that the product she was using was produced in and shipped from our North Cove site. What we do on a daily basis truly matters as there is a patient at the other end, and in this case it happened to be my sister.”
Jonathan Moore, Distribution Manager
PHR SR HR Representative
“My father-in-law was diagnosed with end-stage renal disease, and Baxter's home dialysis products were a vital part of his treatment. Being here and recognizing the Baxter boxes from their house was a moment that really brought home the impact of our mission. My personal experience with Baxter products has made me even more passionate about the company's mission, and I am eager to contribute to the team that is working to make a difference in the lives of patients and their families.”
Theresa Sutton, PHR SR HR Representative
