About Us

OUR FIRST PATIENT

Home I.V. Care and Nutritional Service was founded in 1984 by Benn H Legum RPh, a local pharmacist, to provide parenteral nutrition to the five year old son of a family friend. Bryan Tims suffered serious injuries due to a faulty drain in a children’s swimming pool. The injuries Bryan suffered left him completely dependent on parenteral nutrition for life. Home I.V. Care and Nutritional Service continues to provide Bryan, now 31 years old, with his parenteral nutrition. Benn remains active today in the infusion pharmacy that he started to help a friend 27 years ago.
