Tim - we had a fulltime BMS3 on POCT from the early 90s on the LGI site. He (and later she) was not called a POCT Coordinator (we never used that title).
We now have a POCT Manager (Rob Coleman) who has responsibility across all Leeds hospitals.
If you would like more details, contact me direct.
Kind regards

For UK only
I would be interested to know how long labs have had a full time POCT
manager/coordinator in post who sole job is POCT and not POCT added on
to another role.
The longest so far to my knowledge is since October 2001 (but Jan
Still may know different!)
