What is an infusion center?

The infusion center at StrongURCare is where you can receive medications and therapies delivered directly into your bloodstream through intravenous (IV) infusion. It’s a convenient, safe, and comfortable alternative to going to the hospital for treatments, and you have the benefit of close monitoring by the renowned staff of trained healthcare professionals.

Whether you need an alternative to oral medication, a more controlled dose, or a specialty service like IV hydration therapy, the team administers each therapy efficiently and with minimal risk.

Which therapies can I receive at an infusion center?

StrongURCare supports a wide range of treatments for both acute and chronic conditions, including:

Rheumatology infusion therapy

This therapy treats autoimmune and inflammatory conditions, including rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, and psoriatic arthritis. You can get the full benefit of biologic medications that help reduce inflammation, manage symptoms, and improve your quality of life.

IV hydration therapy

Another intravenous treatment is IV hydration therapy, which quickly replenishes fluids and electrolytes when you’re dehydrated due to illness, heat exposure, or other conditions. Whether you have a hangover, a vitamin deficiency, or a cold on the way, vitamin and nutrient infusions provide the boost you need.

Tailored treatments

The skilled team of urgent care providers can support your care plan with antibiotic infusions for infections, pain management therapies, and medications for conditions like migraines or asthma.

What can I expect at my infusion center appointment?

You’ll start with a medical assessment, during which the team reviews your medical history, confirms your treatment plan, and answers your questions. Once you’re ready, they insert a small IV catheter into a vein (usually in your arm) to begin the infusion.

During your treatment, you can relax. Bring a good book, play on your phone, or take a quick nap. Your appointment length will depend on your therapy: some infusions take as little as 30 minutes, while others may last several hours.

Throughout the process, the StrongURCare team monitors you for side effects and reactions, ensuring your safety at all times. Once completed, they remove the IV and give you any necessary aftercare instructions before you head home.
