The aims of this policy are: To prevent unnecessary acute hospital admission and to facilitate early discharge from the acute hospital setting by enabling patients to receive IV medicines safely within their own home or a community health care setting. To ensure an IV medicine is the most appropriate treatment for the patient and that it is administered via the most appropriate Vascular Access Device, the most appropriate vascular access site is chosen and the IV medicine is administered at the right time.
