Home Nurse Visits

Why might someone need a home nurse visit?

Patients with chronic and debilitating health problems, especially the elderly, benefit from home nurse care. These patients may struggle with transportation and mobility. 

Complicated drug regimens and regular medical care can often be too much for a patient or family member to manage on their own. The home nurse visits offered by the team at Elevation Infusion Services help seniors and other homebound patients manage their health, improve health markers, and get the medical attention necessary to avoid pain and complications associated with their condition. 

What services do you offer during home nurse visits?

The team at Elevation Health Services provides many services during home nurse visits. This includes hydration and vitamin infusion therapy. The registered nurse team can provide infusions to people who need:

• Immunoglobulins
• Infusions for multiple sclerosis
• Immunosuppressive drugs
• Pain management or palliative care
• Pre- and post-transplant therapies
• Alpha-1 augmentation
• Anti-infectives 
• Chemotherapy
• Inotropes
• Hemophilia therapies

Home nurse visits also include the management of tube feeding, hydration, and parenteral nutrition. 

During home nurse visits, your provider can teach you how to administer your own infusion therapy. They may also conduct weekly dressing changes, take blood or urine samples for lab tests, and use IV sites for infection or irritation. 

What are the benefits of home nurse visits?

Home nurse visits make necessary medical care available to people who might otherwise put it off or not have the means to get it. Home visits can reduce the number of emergency room visits, nursing home placements, hospitalizations, and re-admissions. 

What happens during home nurse visits?

One of the licensed medical professionals from Elevation Infusion Services visits your home or other designated location at the time of your scheduled appointment. They’ll administer the infusion or other recommended treatments. You agree to the services before the visit, so there are no surprises at the home nurse visit. 

The team takes care to adhere to all HIPPA regulations and policies. Your privacy is protected.
