Equipping POCT co-ordinators with the A-Z foundation needed to get the best from POCT

- Gain motivation to reinvigorate: drive forward and enhance your service offering to your trust?
- Build a support network: make contacts that you can call on any time to help you with your challenges?
- Be prepared: get an update on what is around the corner so that you are ready for changes?
YES! Then this is the conference for you. Make use of this unique opportunity to hear case studies, practical advice and shared examples. Return to your trust with the tools to deliver a first class POCT service.
Designed for POCT Co-ordinators who want to establish a good grounding – read on to identify what this A-Z foundation on best practice for POCT can offer you:
Develop your role as POCT Co-ordinator in order to optimise time and deliver value for your trust
This one day conference is the ideal opportunity to learn, reinforce and revalidate best practice for POCT co-ordinators. Hear how others are optimising their roles to drive forward their services and share practical insight into how common challenges have been overcome. By developing a trust wide co-ordinated approach to POCT, you have the potential to deliver cash savings, and this is your opportunity to hear how you can do just that.
Ensure compliance by implementing a robust quality management system for your POCT
Only at this event will you gain practical insight into how your peers are preparing themselves for accreditation. Find out firsthand what a strong quality management system should include and discover how you can design your own quality manual, ensure smooth procedures for document control and maintain fully auditable quality records.
Maximise training and attain enhanced competencies amongst your workforce
Attend this event to hear how others are facing your top three challenges: training, measuring and monitoring competencies. By hearing about the solutions that have already been put into place, you will be able to take away ideas that you can put into practice, share your frustrations and ultimately find usable solutions. By sharing case studies and taking part in the practical exercises, you will return to your trust with new ideas on how to design and implement new measures to meet your training and competency monitoring needs.
Ready yourself for what is next and make headway with connectivity across your trust and into the community
We all know that POCT is the future, but we are currently a long way off from that vision. This event will help you prepare for what is on the horizon. With PCTs demanding that delivery of testing be brought closer to the patients, this is your opportunity to start thinking about how you can drive forward and achieve change. POCT co-ordinators are integral to realising the future of testing and diagnostics and this is your opportunity to ensure that you are fully prepared.
