Hello

PIANISTRN,

What is your background and where do you work now? Many states have local INS chapters with regular monthly meetings. These are excellent resources for networking and education . Try Googling "New Jersey Intravenous Nurses Society ".

I have been an Infusion Nurse ( CRNI ) for many years, in home care and also acute care. It would be my pleasure to assist you in any way I can, infusion has been my love for many years.

You can also ask the hospitals if they have a room where people go for outpt IV therapy .

You can call home care agencies and see who they regularly use for infusion.

You have flexibility if you just do visits in the evening or just in the day.
