PICC Services Company Comparison

Advanced Lines, including Internal Jugulars, Mid-Thigh Femorals, Axillaries, Large Bore Quad Lumens, Dialysis Catheters (such as Acute/Temp Vas Caths and Tunneled Perm Caths), Tunneled Central Lines, and Arterial Lines allow us to obtain critical vascular access when Standard Lines may not be appropriate such as when the patient has or likely will have kidney and renal failure, has or likely will have Deep Vein Thrombosis (or DVT), or had a mastectomy.  In such situations, other vascular access devices that enable vascular access provide additional tools to create safe vascular access.  While Vascular Wellness excels in the placement of these Advanced Lines, very few vascular access nurse clinicians are able to even offer or provide such lines as part of their limited Mobile PICC services, making such PICC services incomplete.  Over the years, we have learned that because other Mobile PICC Services Companies do not offer Advanced Lines, in certain cases, those company nurses will not do a detailed medical history review or will ignore such medical history so that they can place the line, claim success, get paid, and move to the next transaction, at the extreme frustration of the doctor knowing that the patient’s life may have been shortened by such behavior.  

Additional PICC Services Company Comparison includes that Vascular Wellness nurse clinicians are Vascular Access Board Certified (VABC), insured, skill-verified, and salaried W2 employees, meaning that we can ensure quality, reliability, and consistent services.  Our employees’ compensation is not based on speed or productivity, and our focus is on client and patient service.  Mobile PICC Services Companies that rely on 1099 contractors are typically not as responsive nor provide the consistent and reliable quality that we deliver every day, including with respect to equipment and supplies as described below.  

As another PICC Services Company Comparison, in states where nurses are permitted, Vascular Wellness expert clinicians can provide immediate X-Ray Clearance of lines when tip confirmation is not available or appropriate and X-Ray confirmation must be used. This saves money, time, and coordination with a Radiologist or other doctor and enables the lines to be used immediately to avoid delaying treatment. Quicker therapy leads to better outcomes.
