Prepare for Your Therapy Appointment
Infusion medications are prepared at the time of treatment by our experienced and registered nurses. If the medication is intravenous (IV) it will likely be prepared and added to an appropriately sized bag of sterile solution (IV Fluids) which is then administered intravenously through an IV catheter placed by the registered nurse. Some IV and injectable medications come in pre-prepared forms that may not require as much advanced preparation.
You will enter the facility, check-in and you will be seen to the infusion suite.
Infusion therapy times vary depending on the type of treatment, our staff will ensure that the experience is as comfortable for you as possible.
