Providing Expert Infusion Care • Leading Innovation
Vivo Infusion®’s mission is to provide clinically exceptional infusion care to our patients in partnership with their physicians, and to set the nationally recognized standard for the delivery of innovative therapeutics.
The next step in our pursuit of this vision is to open pathways to assist in the development of new infusion therapies through collaborations with leaders in the research industry. We are partnering with sponsors and clinical investigators, offering access to our infusion centers for the administration of infusion based investigational products. These infusions are prepared and delivered by a highly skilled clinical nursing staff and monitored by board certified advanced practitioners, under the guidance of experienced research physicians along with their research teams.
Our clinics have been designed specifically with the patient experience in mind, from the comfortable, warm environments to the ample, free parking. Receiving research care in a clinic built for patient comfort will allow for an optimal experience for patients participating in clinical trials.
JCAHO certified, Vivo Infusion® holds itself to the highest bar for quality services, and we extend that quality standard to the research community, facilitating processes that will speed the next generation of therapies to our patients.
