As many of you may have heard, a manufacturing plant in North Carolina responsible for 60% of the nation’s IV fluids was shut down by Hurricane Helene. Another major IV fluids plant in Florida is in the projected path of Hurricane Milton. Hospitals and other businesses around the country are already facing a massive IV fluids shortage due to the hurricane damage and we are anticipating the federal government will soon declare a national emergency

Hospitals are canceling elective procedures that require IV fluids and significantly limiting who they administer IV fluids to in order to ration supplies. As such, we will also be limiting IV fluids administration.

Our top priority is to continue offering our clients the best possible care and customer service no matter what. We also want to make sure we are being cognizant of prioritizing emergency services over elective in the face of this crisis. Our incredible team of nurses is working to put together creative solutions to continue offering the high quality services you’ve come to expect – we are able to offer the vast majority of our existing IV cocktail menu as IV pushes in the interim while the fluids shortage is handled nationally.

We will continue to offer IV fluids to those who need it most, under our nursing staff and medical director’s discretion. We do not anticipate our other services – vitamin injections, infrared sauna, Hydrafacial, etc. – being affected during this time.

We will continue to keep our clients informed as the situation evolves and greatly appreciate your understanding and flexibility in this national crisis.
