1. The combination comprising: a wheeled hospital bed, a wheeled IV stand, an IV rack, means removably mounting said rack to said stand, and means for removably mounting said rack to said bed upon severing said rack from said stand and transferring said rack to said bed; said means removably mounting said rack to said stand and said means for removably mounting said rack to said bed facilitating generally horizontal, slidable transfer of said IV rack from said stand to said bed and from said bed to said stand; said bed defining a footprint on a floor by projecting downwardly thereon a periphery of said bed, said rack being positioned within said bed footprint when said rack is mounted to said bed. 2. The combination comprising: a wheeled hospital bed, a wheeled IV stand, an IV rack, means removably mounting said rack to said stand, and means for removably mounting said rack to said bed upon severing said rack from said stand and transferring said rack to said bed; said bed defining a footprint on a floor by projecting downwardly thereon a periphery of said bed, said rack being positioned within said bed footprint when said rack is mounted to said bed; said means removably mounting said rack to said stand comprising: a mounting block secured to said stand, and means on said rack for slidable engagement with and removable securement to said block. 3. The combination of claim 2 wherein said means on said rack for slidable engagement with and removable securement to said block comprises a downturned channel section bracket having inwardly turned flanges, said flanges being operable to slidably engage a pair of lips on opposed sides of said block. 4. The combination comprising: a wheeled hospital bed, a wheeled IV stand, an IV rack, means removably mounting said rack to said stand, and means for removably mounting said rack to said bed upon severing said rack from said stand and transferring said rack to said bed; said bed defining a footprint on a floor by projecting downwardly thereon a periphery of said bed, said rack being positioned within said bed footprint when said rack is mounted to said bed; said means for removably mounting said rack to said bed comprising: an IV rail having a pair of vertical posts secured to said bed and a horizontal rail connected between said posts, a mounting block mounted on said horizontal rail and adapted for slidable movement along said rail, and means on said rack for slidable engagement with and removable securement to said block. 5. The combination of claim 4 wherein said means on said rack for slidable engagement with and removable securement to said block comprises a downturned channel section bracket having inwardly turned flanges, said flanges being operable to slidably engage a pair of lips on opposed sides of said block. 6. A universal IV stand comprising: a wheeled base, a first vertical pole originating at said base, extending upwardly and terminating in a platform, said platform including means thereon for slidable engagement and removable securement by a severable IV rack, a second vertical pole originating at said platform and extending upwardly, and a rod slidable upwardly and downwardly into and out of said second vertical pole and having a plurality of hooks at an upper end thereof for supporting a plurality of bags of IV solution; whereby said stand may be utilized in conjunction with a severable IV rack adapted to be connected to said engagement and securement means, and may be utilized without the severable rack as a traditional IV stand whereupon bags of IV solution are supported from said hooks. 7. The universal IV stand of claim 6 wherein said slidable engagement and removable securement means comprises a mounting block having a pair of lips on opposed sides thereof, said lips being adapted to be slidably engaged by a downturned channel section bracket having inwardly turned flanges mounted to said IV rack. 8. An IV rack adapted for use with a wheeled IV stand comprising: a vertical spine, a horizontally oriented arm connected to said spine, and a plurality of individual IV poles connected to said horizontal arm; said arm and poles adapted to support a plurality of IV bags and infusion pumps, said spine including on a lower end thereof means for slidable engagement and removable securement of said IV rack to an IV stand. 9. The IV rack of claim 8 wherein said slidable engagement and removable securement means comprises a downturned channel section bracket having inwardly turned flanges adapted to slidably engage a pair of lips on opposed sides of a mounting block on the IV stand. 10. A hospital bed adapted for use with a removably securable IV rack comprising: a wheeled bed support structure, a bed frame connected to said support structure, an IV rail connected to said bed frame, and a mounting block mounted for slidable movement along said rail, said block including means for generally horizontal slidable engagement and removable securement by an IV rack; whereby said mounting block facilitates generally horizontal, slidable transfer of the IV rack from an IV stand to said bed and from said bed to the stand. 11. A hospital bed adapted for use with a removably securable IV rack comprising: a wheeled bed support structure, a bed frame connected to said support structure, an IV rail connected to said bed frame, and a mounting block mounted for slidable movement along said rail, said block including means for slidable engagement and removable securement by an IV rack; said slidable engagement and removable securement means comprising a pair of lips on opposed sides of said block which are operable to be engaged by a downturned channel section bracket having inwardly turned flanges on the IV rack. 12. The hospital bed of claim 11 wherein said rail includes a horizontal section having a hexagonal cross-section, and said block includes a hexagonal bore therethrough for slidable mating engagement with said horizontal section of said rail. 13. The hospital bed of claim 11 wherein said bed defines a footprint on a floor by projecting downwardly thereon a periphery of said bed, and wherein the IV rack and any IV solution bags and pumps mounted thereto are positioned within said bed footprint, when the rack is mounted to said bed. 14. The combination comprising: a wheeled hospital bed, a wheeled IV stand, an IV rack, means removably mounting said rack to said stand, and means for removably mounting said rack to said bed upon severing said rack from said stand and transferring said rack to said bed; said means removably mounting said rack to said stand and said means for removably mounting said rack to said bed facilitating generally horizontal, slidable transfer of said IV rack from said stand to said bed and from said bed to said stand.
