HOTPOC is the Heart of Texas Point-of-Care Group being formed to provide a network for POCCs in Central Texas.

Our Objective
The purpose of HOTPOC is to form a collaborative network of point-of-care coordinators with a willingness to share information, ideas, and creative solutions to the unique challenges presented by the growth of point-of-care testing (POCT). Through a philosophy of open communication, cooperation, and the use of various communication tools, we strive to develop an association that serves:

• As an education resource for everyday POCT issues.
• As an educational resource for current and emerging POCT standards and technologies.
• To influence industry development efforts.
• As an informational resource to other organizations.

Membership
There is no fee to be a member - being a member of HOTPOC simply adds you to our database so we can provide you with opportunities to attend meetings and webinars on the most current topics in Point of Care Testing (POCT).

A healthcare professional with an interest in the development, delivery, or administration of POCT, and/or an individual employed by a commercial firm providing sales or support of products and/or services used for POCT, are eligible for membership. The interaction among members, in group settings or on a one-to-one basis, will prove invaluable to the success of your POC Program. Becoming involved in this professional organization not only benefits you as an individual, but also those who are in your profession and those for whom you really work– the PATIENT.
