Market your expertise for the changing future of intravenous therapy
Abstract:
Redirecting an i.v. team is a progressive approach to interdepartmental and community i.v. needs for the future viability of i.v. therapy. Cut backs and cost justification can be redirected to increase revenue. First the i.v. team should present a proposal to hospital management that includes statistics of i.v. team duties, cost justification by phlebitis and infection, and ways that revenue can be increased. Areas of expertise and needs in the department, hospital or agency, and community must be determined. The possibilities and feasibility of implementation should be researched and prioritized. These possibilities should then be planned, developed, and implemented according to the prioritized list.
