π§ͺ Have Your Say on Point of Care Testing π§ͺ
π Point of care testing means medical tests carried out close to where you need them - in a GP surgery, pharmacy, community setting or even at home. These tests (such as pregnancy, Covid, blood or urine tests) donβt need to go to a laboratory, so results are much quicker - sometimes within minutes.
π The survey asks for your views on 10 short statements about point of care tests. All responses are anonymous and will only be used for this project by the North West Point of Care Testing Group, which includes Health Innovation North West Coast, the University of Central Lancashire and Westlakes Research Ltd.
