Has anyone seen any recent articles on starting a vascular access tream?

The last one to my knowledge was co-authored by me and it was from 2002 Journal of Infusion Nursing entitled "cost losses with a PICC, Stick and Run, Team"
There is also info on the article "cost Containment" that is in JIN in 2005
I cannot say that alot of articles are out there on this topic

Jeff,
if you read this. Would you consider sharing your proposal with cost/staffing analysis, refs and whatever you have. We are currently trying to start a port and PICC inserting unit within the oncology dept.
