FIT is a web-based, interactive educational tool developed in alignment with INS’ Infusion Therapy Standards of Practice. The FIT program consists of 8 modules with full motion graphics, videos, simulations, references, and critical thinking exercises that engage learners, while incorporating considerations for various health care settings and patient populations. This program is suited for nurses who are new to nursing practice, as well as experienced nurses wishing to advance their knowledge of infusion therapy best practices.
