A care package starts with the right conversation. Learn how the clinic approaches IV therapy and laboratory packages before deciding what to ask about.

Start with a conversation

Tell our team about your visit and any questions you have. They can explain the next steps and available services.

You do not need to choose a treatment before seeing a doctor. Describe your concerns and any medicines you take, then ask what options are suitable for your situation. The doctor assesses you before recommending any IV package. Depending on that assessment, the next step may be a different treatment or a referral to hospital rather than a package.

Understand your options

Our packages page describes what is included in each option. Ask the clinic to explain anything you would like to know before proceeding.

The IV packages are intended for particular medical complaints, and IV therapy is offered only to adults aged 18 or over when the doctor finds it appropriate. Laboratory packages cover different groups of tests and include a doctor's review of the results. Before booking a lab package, confirm whether preparation is needed and whether every test in that package is currently available.

Discuss the next steps

IV packages are chosen after a doctor’s assessment. Laboratory packages include a doctor’s review of your results.

Ask how long your visit may take, what the package includes and whether any extra test or treatment would add to the cost. If IV therapy is recommended, a nurse monitors you during treatment and you rest for 30 minutes afterward. For laboratory tests, ask when the results are expected and how the doctor will explain them. The team can help you understand these steps before you proceed.
