Well in the PICC line everything must be STERILE. So the equipment will be set up. Sterile gloves, etc. and then after the transfusion is over a new sterile dressing will be reapplied.

Do your own homework. Check your course notes or the readings you are supposed to do. I'm sure the answer is there.
