Re: Does your chemo nurse let you see the bag before she/he hangs it?

My people at JACC in Lubbock, TX always showed me every bag, checked my armband, and then asked me my name and birthdate before any infusion. I assumed that to be routine practice at any cancer center for patient safety and for the center's safety.
