Going into the hospital or doctor’s office every time you need to receive your regular treatments isn’t always practical. Home infusion therapy can be essential for patients who have an acute or chronic illness, but need treatment options that fit their lives.
Through the Allegheny Health Network Home Infusion program, you can receive intravenous medications and nutritional support in the privacy and comfort of your own home.
