A catheter port adapted to be selectively secured topically to a patient's body about a site at which a catheter is to be inserted into the patient's body. The catheter port includes a cushion adapted to be secured to the patient's epidermis at its bottom surface about the site and at its top surface to a member, an inner tube having one portion mounted on the member and having another portion that is adapted to extend into the patient's body about the site for guiding movement of a catheter relative to the site and for preventing any portion of the catheter from ever contacting the patient's epidermis, an outer tube having a proximal end mounted on one of the member and inner tube, an intermediate portion extending away from the one of the member and the inner tube in a distal end and a septum mounted on the outer tube.
