A PICC (Peripherally Inserted Central Catheter) provides reliable central venous access for patients who need long-term IV medications, antibiotics, TPN, or chemotherapy. Our team places PICCs at the bedside using ultrasound guidance, avoiding the delay and expense of a hospital transfer.

PICC lines are ideal when peripheral IV access is exhausted or when therapy will last more than 5–7 days. Every placement is confirmed with tip verification and documented for your records.
