Team Approach

 

Our professional staff provides compassionate care for medically complex patients in the nurturing environment of their own homes under the leadership of the patient’s physician.

Pharmacists

Our pharmacists are experts in home IV therapies. They are available to the patient, nurse, and physician 24 hours a day seven days a week. Pharmacists develop a specific care plan for the patient’s therapy that may include lab monitoring and adjusting medication dosages, with the physician’s approval. Delivery of all pharmaceuticals and necessary supplies are scheduled to the patient’s home according to patient needs.

IV certified registered nurses

Our experienced nurses train the patient or the caregiver in every aspect of the patient’s care. They are available to the patient and physician 24 hours a day seven days a week. In-home nursing services can include caring for the patient’s IV access device, performing lab draws, catheter care, programming pumps, monitoring patient progress and updating the physician on patient progress.

Reimbursement specialists

Reimbursement specialists verify insurance coverage, obtain authorization and bill the patient’s insurance directly for home infusion therapy services, removing this responsibility from the physician’s office staff.

Ongoing coordination with our professional pharmacists and nurses skilled in IV therapy assures patients of successful outcomes.
