Statement regarding BCIS Approval of PCI Centres

It is the view of the BCIS Council that the assessment of a PCI service should continue to be site specific. BCIS will therefore continue to assess each site as a separate entity in terms of granting professional approval for its suitability to offer PCI.

This recommendation will apply to merged trusts and to any new PCI centre that is to be supported by clinicians from another site.
