per week About The Position A Registered Nurse (RN) in Infusion
Therapy provides specialized care to patients receiving intravenous
(IV) medications, fluids, blood products, or biologic therapies.
This role involves assessing patients' needs, administering
infusions, monitoring for adverse reactions, and educating patients
on their treatment plans. The RN in infusion therapy is responsible
for ensuring the safe and effective delivery of infusions in
various healthcare settings, such as outpatient infusion centers,
hospitals, and home care. This position requires excellent
technical skills, a strong understanding of infusion therapies, and
the ability to manage complex patient care needs. Key
Responsibilities : Patient Assessment and Planning : Assess
patients’ medical history, current health status, and specific
needs related to infusion therapy. Evaluate the patient’s veins for
appropriate IV access, considering factors such as vein condition,
prior infusion history, and overall treatment plan. Develop
individualized care plans for patients receiving infusion therapy,
ensuring treatments align with physician orders and patient needs.
Infusion Administration : Administer prescribed infusions,
including IV medications, fluids, biologics, blood products, or
chemotherapy, ensuring the correct dose, rate, and technique.
Insert, maintain, and manage IV access devices such as peripheral
IVs, central lines, PICC lines, or ports. Monitor patients during
the infusion for signs of adverse reactions, complications, or side
effects (e.g., allergic reactions, infiltration, phlebitis). Adjust
infusion rates or volumes based on the patient's condition and
physician’s orders. Patient Monitoring and Safety : Continuously
monitor the patient’s vital signs, symptoms, and response to
therapy throughout the infusion process. Respond promptly to
adverse reactions, such as allergic responses, complications at the
IV site, or systemic reactions. Take immediate action in
emergencies, including stopping the infusion, administering
medications (e.g., antihistamines, epinephrine), or initiating
life-saving measures as needed. Patient Education : Educate
patients and their families about the infusion process, including
the purpose of the therapy, potential side effects, and how to
recognize complications or adverse reactions. Instruct patients on
proper care and maintenance of infusion sites, as well as
post-infusion care. Provide guidance on at-home care for patients
receiving home infusion therapy, ensuring they understand the
importance of follow-up care, signs of infection, and other related
instructions. Documentation and Record-Keeping : Maintain accurate
and detailed records of the infusion process, including patient
assessments, IV access site monitoring, medications administered,
and patient responses. Document any complications, adverse
reactions, or changes in patient condition in the patient's medical
record. Ensure documentation complies with regulatory requirements,
including adherence to HIPAA standards. Infection Control and
Safety : Follow strict infection control protocols when preparing
and administering infusions, using aseptic techniques to prevent
infections at the IV site. Monitor for signs of infection at the
infusion site, such as redness, swelling, or drainage, and take
appropriate action if infection occurs. Ensure that all equipment
used for infusion is sterile, and that safety protocols are
followed to minimize risks to patients. Collaboration with
Healthcare Team : Collaborate with physicians, pharmacists, and
other healthcare professionals to develop and adjust infusion
therapy plans, ensuring that patient needs are met. Communicate
effectively with the multidisciplinary team about any patient
concerns, changes in condition, or infusion-related issues.
Participate in team meetings and contribute insights regarding
patient care or the improvement of infusion protocols. Quality
Assurance and Continuing Education : Stay current on best practices
and guidelines related to infusion therapy, including advances in
IV medications, technologies, and patient care techniques.
Participate in quality assurance activities, reviewing and
improving infusion protocols, patient safety practices, and patient
outcomes. Participate in continuing education or certifications
related to infusion nursing, such as certification in intravenous
therapy (e.g., CRNI – Certified Registered Nurse Infusion).
