Our Values

Since inception, AIVA has been about success and sustainability. In 2021, we recognized explosive growth in the IV hydration therapy industry and began organizing events to educate and inform providers before we even had a website. The industry response was far-reaching and incredible, and passion quickly fueled the development of more. From podcasts to webinars to articles, FAQs and more, we relentlessly invested in an infrastructure unlike the industry had ever seen.

Over a year later we maintain the vision of success and sustainability and continue to create new resources to support our members across the nation. Today we are a nationwide force offering essential resources delivered consistently with precision and passion, enabling our members to drive the industry forward safely.

The aspirations of our organization remain true to those established by our visionary founders, and their innovation and energy continue to be our inspiration. Our passion and entrepreneurial culture will ensure that we deliver for our members the most comprehensive industry resources available - today and in the future.

AIVA was founded as a Limited Liability Corporation because we believe this organizational structure is the most ethical and appropriate. We choose this because not-for-profit corporations rely on after tax contributions from other taxpayers to support their mission, and receive tax exemptions from the government. This is commonplace for a NFP hospital system whose mission, in return, is obligated to provide services to everyone that walks in the door, including the uninsured. This example is not reflective of the IV Hydration Industry at all. Thus, we do not believe it is right or appropriate to expect taxpayers and the federal government to help subsidize AIVA. From its inception, AIVA's stated mission is to support a vibrant for- profit industry, ensure its integrity, and promote its sustainability for the future.
