We have been administering IVIg in the home for quite some time. Our policy states the nurse needs to be in the home for the entire infusion for the first two infusions at home. (The first dose is administered in a controlled setting). I would like to know what other home care agencies are doing and if this is still a standard practice. I would appreciate any input anyone would be willing to share.
