We understand how important it is to be close to the people you love when faced with a health issue. That’s why Banner – University Medical Center Tucson offers intravenous (IV) therapies right here close to home.
Intravenous administration of medications and nutrition is sometimes necessary in the treatment of many chronic and severe conditions, including arthritis, cancer, Crohn's disease, multiple sclerosis and osteoporosis. It is a safe alternative when medications can’t be taken by mouth.
A specially trained nurse will insert a flexible tube (catheter) into a vein or just under your skin at your infusion site – usually your arm or chest.
Outpatient Infusion therapy is provided at by a team of highly skilled professionals including nurses, physicians and pharmacists.
The partnership between Banner Health and the University of Arizona brings clinical care delivery, education and research to the forefront of the patient experience.
