At Vi-Lifestyle, patient safety is our top priority. We understand the importance of medication safety and have implemented a secure system to ensure the safe and effective use of GLP-1 medications. Here is what we do:
Medication Selection and Prescription
Before your first consultation, we recommend taking a self-screening test to give us a general idea of whether medical weight loss is right for you. Our medical team then carefully evaluate each person to find the type of GLP-1 medication that best suits their needs and medical history. Additionally, our partnering pharmacies evaluate which specific brand of medication is suitable for each person. We only work with FDA-approved medications that have been thoroughly tested and reviewed. Our team will closely monitor your medication dosage, making any necessary adjustments to ensure the treatment works effectively while keeping side effects to a minimum. You’ll also have weekly check-ins with a registered nurse who will track your progress and answer any questions you may have. This personalized approach allows us to provide safe and effective care that’s tailored specifically to you.
Medication Dispensing and Delivery
We partner with trusted national pharmacies that are committed to adhering to the highest quality standards, ensuring that your medication is handled with the utmost care and precision. Your designated pharmacy will be responsible for the delivery of your medication, and we will keep you informed every step of the way. Once you’ve purchased your medication, you’ll receive regular updates from us, including tracking details, so you can monitor the progress of your order and know exactly when to expect your delivery.
To ensure the integrity and effectiveness of your medication, all orders are delivered within 2-4 days and packaged in secure, cooling containers that preserve the medication’s quality during transit. Upon receiving your medication, you’ll receive detailed, informative updates from us with step-by-step instructions on how to administer your medication. Our goal is to make sure you have everything you need for a smooth and successful experience, from the moment you place your order to the moment you begin your treatment.
Education and Monitoring
Throughout your weight loss journey with us, we are dedicated to keeping you informed and supported every step of the way. From the beginning, you’ll receive a steady stream of information tailored to your needs, ensuring you’re well-equipped to succeed. Not only will you have weekly check-ins with your registered nurse to discuss your progress and address any concerns, but you’ll also benefit from monthly consultations with a dietitian and a behavioral therapist. These experts will work closely with you to provide personalized guidance, helping you to develop healthy habits that complement your treatment.
Our coaching team is committed to educating you on the essential lifestyle changes that will not only enhance the effectiveness of your medication but also help to maintain your progress in the long run. By offering you the tools and knowledge to make these changes, we aim to support you in creating a sustainable, healthy lifestyle that will last after your journey with us is complete.
Technology and Data Management
We believe in using the latest technology and data management tools to make your healthcare experience as smooth and effective as possible. At the heart of our approach is our use of advanced health record systems. These systems help our medical team keep a close eye on your medication usage, monitor dosages, and spot any potential interactions, ensuring that your treatment is always safe and well-managed.
But we don’t just stop at tracking your records. By understanding how your medication and treatment are working for you, we can make better decisions that enhance your treatment and help prevent any issues before they occur. This means your care is constantly being fine-tuned to meet your needs.
We also want to make sure you’re fully involved in your healthcare journey. That’s why we provide you with secure access to your progress through the easy-to-use Vytal app. Here, you can review your health information, track your progress, and stay updated on your treatment plan. This access empowers you to be an active participant in your care, giving you the tools you need to make informed decisions about your health.
By implementing these robust measures, we strive to ensure the safe and effective use of GLP-1 medications for our patients.
