Hi Theresa
It may be worth speaking to someone at Royal Cornwall Hospitals (RCHT), part of our South 1 Pathology/POCT network. The West Cornwall Hospital has had a POCT minilab for quite a few years which I have visited and is well equipped and has oversight form RCHT. Here is a press release from 2015

I am pursuing a pilot for community diagnostics in our locality which is gaining a lot of attention. More to follow on that!

Subject: POCT "Lab"
Hi Everyone,
Does anybody run a POCT "lab" within their hospital?
If you do could you share the following information please:
Is it staffed by the POCT Team?
Is it 24/7?
What is your staffing structure and shift pattern?
What tests do you offer?
Would really appreciate any information you can share.
Many thanks,
Theresa
Norfolk & Norwich University Hospital
