to find a qualified Infusion RN in Boston, Massachusetts, 02115! 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). 5
