You're not the only one who's had enough.
Iv Hydration Techs face unique challenges: Running a mobile, address-to-address schedule (homes, hotels, offices, events) where travel time between stops has to be built into the calendar. Keeping a standing physician/NP order and signed consent on file for each client per scope-of-practice rules before any drip goes in. Tracking refrigerated fluid and additive inventory and expiration dates across a mobile cooler so nothing expired gets infused. Handling hangover and event group bookings (bachelorette parties, corporate events) where several people need drips at one location and one combined bill. On top of all that, Acuity Scheduling charges $33/month ($396/year) — money that comes directly from your revenue. The median IV Hydration Nurse earns $35,000/year. Software at $396/year is a meaningful percentage of that income, every year, forever. And you do not own anything.
Your Sterile IV start kits, catheters, and tubing is yours. You bought it once. Nexa works the same way — $279 once for invoicing, scheduling, CRM, time tracking, and full accounting. All connected. All offline-capable. You own it like you own your tools.

She loads the cooler with saline bags, vitamin additives, and start kits, checks expiration dates, restocks the sharps container, and maps her route, because she's mobile and the day is a chain of addresses with drive time between each. First stop is a hotel where a wedding party of four wants the hangover drip before brunch; she confirms each one's consent and the standing order, takes vitals, starts the lines, and runs saline with B-complex and anti-nausea while they recover on the couch. She bills the group as one stop. Next is a regular at her downtown office on a monthly immune drip with a glutathione push at the end. The tech watches the infusion rate, monitors how each client tolerates the line, and never starts a drip without the screening and order in place, because that's the scope-of-practice line she can't cross. Between stops she's driving, so the calendar has to leave room for traffic. She fields a text from a corporate client wanting drips for ten people at an afternoon event. She tracks which additives are running low in the cooler and what's nearing expiration, restocks for tomorrow, and reconciles the day's stops, the group bill, and the single visits.
