    We are considering moving to the Houston area (currently in Washington). In order to avoid a commute and have horse property, we would likely live "outside the loop".

    However, we are needing to know if the outer area hospitals (Memorial Hermann Northeast/Woodlands, Tomball Regional, Methodist Willowbrook, Cleveland Regional, St Lukes Woodlands, etc.) have Vascular Access teams or teams where nurses place PICC/midlines.

    Are PICC teams a feature that would only be found at the bigger hospitals in Houston?

    I'm at one of the hospitals you list (PM to find out which one) and we have a PICC team. Also have a bunch of nurses trained to place ultrasound peripheral IVs.
