Home phototherapy involves several coordinated steps to ensure the best care for your infant. Once we receive the order from your provider the process begins.
● First, you'll receive a phone call from our office with an approximate time for the registered nurse's arrival.
● Before the nurse arrives, you'll receive a text message prompting you to sign online consent forms and upload insurance information. This is a necessary step for treatment.
● On the setup day, the nurse will arrive at your home, explain how to use the phototherapy equipment, and review what to expect during treatment.
● In the following days, the nurse will visit to take vital signs and a newborn assessment, check your infant's weight, and obtain bilirubin lab work.
● This lab work will be processed by the laboratory, and the results will be communicated to your pediatrician, who will provide further care instructions based on the results.
