Anticoagulation

Anticoagulation services are provided to patients who require the administration of an anticoagulant drug to help thin the blood and prevent blood clots. Staff will assist with medication management and related care.

Patients who regularly take a blood-thinning medication, like warfarin, have various options for managing long-term care and testing their international normalized ratio (INR) levels (the time it takes for blood to clot), including home INR testing.
