medical/legal question

[Guest guest]

I am a new paramedic and while taking care of my mother at home MD

saids she needs IV antibotics for kidney infection. My question is:

If he has the IV supplies in his office and the fluids and medication

can I start the IV and administer the medication with him telling me to

do so (MD order)? Can I do this at home or in his office? Are there

anything legally that I need to watch out for?

Im trying to keep her out of the hospital as much as possible and I

just want to clarification on the question.

Thanks for your help
