I fourth the motion on this one. I was told not to allow anyone other than an onc nurse to access because most others dont know how, and the onc nurse also accessed flushed, did blood work, got herceptin and then fluhed again. The port made life so much easier for me as my 2nd A/C treatment my vein collapsed which made the whole situation painful. Why get stuck more than once!
