What is it like to get the infusion? Starting the infusion When you get to the hospital, clinic, or infusion center, a nurse will show you to a chair where you can sit comfortably during the infusion process. The nurse will clean your arm with a special liquid that kills germs. Then they’ll insert a small needle into a vein and start the flow of medicine. During the infusion Once the infusion has started, it takes about 1 hour. From time to time, a nurse will come to check on you and measure your temperature, breathing, and heart rate. When the infusion is over, you’ll need to stay for a couple of hours so the nurse can keep checking on you to make sure you’re feeling okay. To help prevent the spread of COVID-19, the nurse and other 15 clinic staff will wear masks, gloves, and face shields. They may also limit the time they spend near you during the infusion — but they’re still there for you if you need them. If you have any questions or concerns during the infusion process, don’t hesitate to ask the clinic staff. It’s their job to explain what’s happening and make sure you feel comfortable. 15 National Infusion Center Association: https://infusioncenter.org/infusion_resources/covid-19/ Page 7 | PP-BM-US-0009 November 2020 ©Lilly USA, LLC 2020.
