We arrive on time, in one vehicle, with a clean kit
No second car. No third party. The kit lives in a refrigerated travel case LoveMeIV signs out at the start of every clinical day.
How a visit works · 30–45 minutes total
From the booking call to the follow-up note the next day — every step is run by the same Missouri-licensed nurse practitioner. No call-center. No 1099 RN at your door. No mystery prescriber. This page walks through what actually happens, in order, with the small clinical decisions called out.
Step one · 90 seconds
Call the practice or open the booking modal. LoveMeIV picks up the line during business hours (8a–10p daily) or returns the call inside an hour. The booking form takes 90 seconds — name, ZIP, service, preferred window, anything you want the clinician to know.
Why phone-first? Most visit decisions benefit from a 30-second clinical conversation before scheduling — a Hangover Recovery booked Sunday morning needs different prep than a Myers booked Tuesday lunch.
Step two · 3 minutes
A HIPAA-aware intake form lands in your email. Medical history, current meds, allergies, anything pregnant or breastfeeding, anything that's changed in the last 30 days. LoveMeIV reviews every intake before arriving — not at the door.
About one in twenty intakes turns up something that adjusts the visit. With NP-led care, those edits happen at intake review — not bedside.
Step three · arrival
One travel kit, signed out at the start of the day from a locked supply cabinet. No second car. No third party. No driver who isn't a clinician. The kit is a refrigerated travel case with everything for the visit and the visits scheduled after yours.
If the practice scales beyond one nurse practitioner, the same pattern stays: clinical visits get clinical arrivals.
Step four · 90 seconds
LoveMeIV confirms identity and intake, takes vital signs (blood pressure, heart rate, oxygen saturation), and walks through the consent specific to the drip you booked. Consent is not a formality — for Hangover Recovery, the consent calls out ondansetron and ketorolac specifically and the contraindications screened. You sign on a tablet; a copy is emailed and lives in your chart.
If something at the door changes the picture — vitals that don't fit the intake, a fever pattern that points to bacterial infection, active intoxication — LoveMeIV will say so and decline the visit. We have done this. We will continue to. A bad fit is not a sale.
Step five · 30–45 minutes
A new sterile catheter goes in (back of the hand or inside of the forearm). The drip runs at the rate LoveMeIV sets for the recipe — Hydrate is fast, Myers and Immune Boost are slower because magnesium and vitamin C deserve a steady rate. You sit, lie down, or work. LoveMeIV stays with you the whole time. We don't set the line and leave.
Adverse reactions to IV vitamins and minerals are rare but they evolve fast when they happen. The right response is a clinician five feet away.
Step six · same day
When the bag is empty, the line comes out, the site is taped with a small pressure dressing, vitals get rechecked. A brief note is dispatched to your Jane chart and to your email the next morning — what to watch for, what was administered, when to call. The same LoveMeIV answers if anything unexpected shows up the next day.
For program patients (semaglutide, recurring members), the note also includes the next planned visit and any clinical observations worth carrying forward.
Common questions
What we do — and what we don't
No second car. No third party. The kit lives in a refrigerated travel case LoveMeIV signs out at the start of every clinical day.
A bad fit at intake is not a sale. Patients with active illness, contraindications to the recipe, or active intoxication get a clear explanation and a referral.
The price you see on the menu is the price at the door, plus a flat $25 travel surcharge outside the Columbia core. Members pay no surcharge.
Intake, consent, vitals, drip details, and follow-up notes live in our HIPAA-aware Jane platform. Your chart is portable on request.
Four-hour chair time isn't honest in a home setting. The IM dose is. Patients who want a high-dose protocol get a referral.
If you cannot stay awake or safely protect your airway, you need urgent care — not a home IV. We will tell you that on the phone.
Or use the form — same calendar, same nurse practitioner.
