Vital Care Crown Point is connected with hundreds of providers in various specialties in the Northern Indiana and West Chicago community we serve. We work in collaboration to ensure accurate, efficient, and positive patient experience.

Referrals are quickly processed and benefits are verified. Once checked out, an order is processed and appointments are scheduled for in-home care or at our Crown Point infusion site.

Vital Care Crown Point provides treatment in the comfort and privacy of a patient's home. This is often a more convenient and cost-effective option.

As your community home infusion pharmacy, Vital Care of Crown Point’s responsibility is to prepare your medications under sterile conditions in our preparation rooms, also called 'clean rooms', dispense all of the necessary supplies that you and your nurses will need to give the medication, dispose of your medical waste and provide professional pharmacy consultation on the use and monitoring of the medication the doctor has prescribed. Many times, our pharmacists, physicians, or dieticians are involved in monitoring patient's lab results and suggesting changes in therapy to your healthcare provider.

There is amazing technology today that can make even some of the most complex therapies easier to administer. Many patients are taught to give their own medication and learn to do it easily and safely. However, in many situations’ nurses from a community home health agency are involved. They come to your home as needed to administer the medication for you.

There are several ways that you can get information and possibly make arrangements to receive home infusion therapy. Contact your doctor. Ask him or her if your medication can be given in your own home by a nursing agency, or home infusion pharmacy. Contact Vital Care of Crown Point at 219-295-4080 and ask to speak to one of our corporate pharmacists or nurses. We can give you additional information needed to make your home care arrangements. Contact a local home care agency and ask them if they provide home infusion. If they do, ask them if they can work with  Vital Care Crown Point Home Infusion Pharmacy to get your home care started.

When you are discharged from your hospital stay, your physician may order additional therapies or equipment to be delivered to your home to aid in your recovery. Homecare industry standards direct discharge staff to present you with an unbiased list of potential suppliers in your area. You have the right to choose the provider that you wish to continue your care in the home or alternate site. While we hope that Vital Care of Crown Point will be your choice of provider, we encourage you to exercise this right to remain in control of your health care.

A home infusion pharmacy provides patients with intravenous (IV) and injectable medications in the comfort of their own homes. These specialized pharmacies coordinate with healthcare providers to deliver and manage infusion therapies for conditions such as infections, immune disorders, dehydration, and chronic illnesses. In addition to supplying medications and infusion equipment, home infusion pharmacies offer nursing support, patient education, and 24/7 clinical oversight to ensure safe and effective treatment outside of a hospital setting.

The answer depends on your insurance, your coverage plan, your medical condition, and the medication that your doctor is prescribing. One of the services offered by Vital Care of Crown Point is to contact your insurance provider and get all the information we need to decide whether or not your therapy would be reimbursed if administered in the home.
