Admission Coordination

After intake, clinical staff work together to coordinate the initial visit and develop the plan of care. Clinical team members within the organization typically include clinical pharmacists and nurses specializing in infusion therapy. Clinical staff must also coordinate and communicate with other care team members outside of the organization, such as key hospital staff, the physician, the patient’s insurer, and the patient’s family.

In some cases, patients may be receiving other home health care or supportive services while receiving infusion therapy. These must be coordinated to provide optimal patient care, prevent duplication, and ensure the optimal use of resources.
