Start spreading the news: a deliberate approach to POCUS program development and implementation.

While there is an expanding body of literature on Point-of-Care Ultrasound (POCUS) pedagogy, administrative elements that are necessary for the widespread adoption of POCUS in the clinical environment have received little attention. In this short communication, we seek to address this gap by sharing our institutional experience with POCUS program development and implementation. The five pillars of our program, selected to tackle local barriers to POCUS uptake, are education, workflow, patient safety, research, and sustainability. Our program logic model outlines the inputs, activities, and outputs of our program. Finally, key indicators for the monitoring of program implementation efforts are presented. Though designed for our local context, this approach may readily be adapted toward other clinical environments. We encourage others leading the integration of POCUS at their centers to adopt this approach not only to achieve sustainable change but also to ensure that quality safeguards are in place.
