Re: Any other Power Port patients here?
I don't have a power port. I have an old fashioned one. However, if I want to use my port for a test outside of my doctor's office my doctor has to write "orders" and send them to the hospital department where I am going to have the test. Technicians who work at that hopspital aren't certified to access ports-------only veins. Only
I. V. nurses can do it, so special arrangements have to be made to get an I. V. nurse for me.
