How IVTherapy2go Brings IV Care to You

From Scheduling Through Treatment and Follow-Up Care

IV therapy does not always require traveling to a hospital or traditional infusion center.

IVTherapy2go brings eligible IV hydration and infusion services to a patient’s home, workplace, hotel, or another appropriate serviced location.

Every appointment begins with screening because IV treatment should be selected according to the patient’s medical history, symptoms, medications, laboratory results, and clinical needs.

Step 1: Request an Appointment

The scheduling process begins with the requested service, patient information, and treatment location.

Patients may be asked to provide:

• Full name and date of birth

• Current symptoms or treatment reason

• Home or service address

• Medication and allergy information

• Relevant medical conditions

• Current insurance information

• Recent laboratory results

• Referral or treatment order

• Preferred appointment time

Submitting a request does not automatically confirm medical eligibility.

Step 2: Complete Clinical Screening

A healthcare professional may review:

• The reason for treatment

• Medical and surgical history

• Current medications

• Drug and food allergies

• Pregnancy status

• Kidney, liver, or heart conditions

• Blood-pressure concerns

• Previous IV reactions

• Recent laboratory findings

• Current symptoms

Some treatments require a physician consultation, laboratory review, prescription, or medical order before an appointment can proceed.

The team may recommend postponing treatment or choosing another level of care when IV therapy is not appropriate.

Step 3: Prepare Your Treatment Area

Before the medical professional arrives:

• Select a clean and well-lit area

• Choose a comfortable chair or reclining space

• Keep your identification available

• Prepare your insurance card

• Gather medications and supplements

• Have recent medical records ready

• Keep your telephone nearby

• Wear clothing with accessible sleeves

• Secure all pets

• Arrange for an adult to remain present when required

Let the team know if building access, parking, security, or gate instructions may affect arrival.

Step 4: Review the Treatment Plan

Before starting the IV, the medical professional may:

• Confirm your identity

• Review the selected therapy

• Recheck medications and allergies

• Measure vital signs

• Review risks and expected effects

• Answer questions

• Obtain appropriate consent

• Determine whether treatment remains safe to begin

The treatment may be changed, delayed, or canceled if new information creates a safety concern.

Step 5: Receive and Monitor the Infusion

A licensed professional starts the IV and monitors the patient during treatment.

Monitoring may include:

• Blood pressure

• Heart rate

• Breathing

• Comfort at the IV site

• Symptoms during treatment

• Possible medication reactions

• Overall response to the infusion

Tell the medical professional immediately about pain, burning, swelling, dizziness, nausea, itching, breathing changes, chest discomfort, or another unexpected symptom.

Step 6: Receive Aftercare Instructions

After treatment, patients may receive instructions about:

• Hydration

• Activity

• IV-site care

• Medication use

• Possible side effects

• Follow-up testing

• Repeat treatments

• Primary-care follow-up

• Symptoms requiring urgent evaluation

Do not assume that additional treatments are automatically needed. Follow-up should be based on the treatment plan and clinical recommendations.

When Is IV Therapy Not Appropriate?

IV therapy is not a substitute for emergency care.

Call 911 for:

• Severe chest pain

• Severe breathing difficulty

• Stroke symptoms

• Loss of consciousness

• Severe allergic-reaction symptoms

• Uncontrolled bleeding

• Major trauma

• Another potentially life-threatening condition

The medical professional may also direct a patient to a clinic, laboratory, imaging center, specialist, or emergency department when the required care cannot be provided safely at the location.
