POCT Disaster Planning
During this Covid-19 pandemic, we have not seen "business as usual". Many things have had to change, and that includes within Point of Care. I invite all of my colleagues to read about TriCore's experience, and then join in the conversation on the listserv to share your own observations. We all benefit when we learn from each other.
KD-COVID paper-7.30-FINAL.pdfAfter reading, please consider the questions below.
Here are some questions to start a conversation:
1. How has POCT been brought into the conversation in your organization?
2. How did you educate yourselves (e.g. about emergency use authorization (EUA)? How did that play into decisions made?
3. How are you addressing training and competency?
4. What are you doing about managing expired controls?
5. What has been your biggest takeaway from this whole experience?
That should be plenty to get us started. Thank you for reading, and I look forward to sharing a rich and lively discussion.

Fellow POC professionals,
There has been a great response to having a discussion of this topic, and Peggy and I are working (with others) to set up a discussion call. Anyone who has responded to this will receive an invitation to the call as long as we have your email (I'll private-message those who didn't give an email to see if they want to provide it). We'll take all the names sent in by Friday Aug 7th to invite to the call/discussion. I know there will be some who want to just listen to the discussion, and also those who wish to participate and speak. Since we have so many who are interested, it would be great to know who would like to speak so we can somehow manage the content. Please email me (katheen.david@tricore.org) if you want to participate in the discussion.
Thanks,
Kathleen
