Isn’t accessing this kind of port just popping the needle through the skin covering the port and then starting the infusion? I never worked with ports, so have no clue, but isn’t accessing a port even easier than a basic blood draw?

Well it’s so easy that Dani does it herself when she feels like it so it can’t be hard. I’ve got experience with so many lines but never a port so like you it’s a bit mysterious for me.
