Wickenburg Community Hospital proudly offers a therapy called monoclonal therapy. Monoclonal therapy is an IV infusion that has been authorized under the Emergency Use Act as an outpatient treatment for patients with a mild to moderate Covid-19 infection and who are at high risk for progression to more severe symptoms.
If you think you may be a candidate for this therapy;
- You must have an official positive COVID test. Contact the Clinic (928-668-1833) to schedule an office or telehealth visit with a provider.
- Once the provider has determined you are an appropriate candidate, an order will be faxed to the pharmacy and infusion center. The scheduler from the Boyd Infusion center will call you with a date and time for the infusion.
- Monoclonal therapy is administered at the hospital.
Monoclonal therapy is administered by our highly trained faculty. The infusion takes about an hour, with an additional hour of observation post-infusion. Post infusion observation is done to ensure the patient responds well to the infusion and no adverse reactions occur.
