- Strong IV insertion and phlebotomy skills
- Infusion experience
- Experience administering subcutaneous injections
- Excellent organizational and communication skills
- Ability to work independently while following detailed clinical protocols
- Reliable transportation, a valid driver's license, and willingness to travel locally to patient homes
