FAQs

Patients and providers can find comprehensive answers to frequently asked questions regarding our IV antibiotic treatments and infectious disease infusion services.

Infectious disease infusion therapy involves the direct administration of intravenous medications—such as antibiotics, antifungals, and antivirals—into the bloodstream. This service is essential for treating severe or complex infections that require higher concentrations of medication or continuous delivery, including conditions like osteomyelitis, sepsis, and severe pneumonia.

IV antibiotics are prescribed when an infection is severe, resistant to oral antibiotics, or located in an area that oral medications can't reach effectively (e.g., bone infections, complex skin infections). They deliver higher concentrations of medication directly to your bloodstream.

Yes, many patients safely receive IV antibiotics at home, which can be at regular interval or continuously infused. We provide comprehensive training on how to administer your medication, care for your IV line (PICC or midline), and troubleshoot common issues. We also coordinate medication and supply delivery.

Beginning care with us for an infection is streamlined: the referring healthcare provider simply needs to send a referral. We then diligently manage all necessary authorizations, coordinate treatment schedules, oversee care plans, and provide thorough guidance to patients, families, and providers at every stage. Our aim is to alleviate stress by efficiently handling referrals, administrative paperwork, and insurance authorizations.

Indeed, obtaining fully informed patient consent is a fundamental and mandatory step before commencing any infusion treatment for an infectious disease.
