The Infusion Nurses Society (INS) – India, an international affiliate of the Infusion Nurses Society of the US which is a no-profit organization dedicated to the specialty practice of infusion nursing, launched its Forum at Delhi. This is the fourth INS - city forum in the country after Chennai, Bengaluru and Kolkata.
The aim of INS Delhi Forum is to provide nurses and related healthcare professionals of the national capital region, a platform to exchange the latest knowhow about best infusion therapy practices, global infusion standards of practice, resulting in better outcomes, higher patient satisfaction and safer care. It would disseminate standards of practice and provide professional development opportunities and quality education programmes on Infusion Therapy, Patient safety, Healthcare Professionals Safety, etc.
To mark the occasion, INS organized a day-long conference at the Max Super Specialty Hospital in association with 3M & BD, two leading global medical technology companies. Built around the theme of ‘Safe Infusion for Safer Healthcare,’ it offered educational sessions, case studies, hands-on simulation labs and a number of presentations from experts. The event was attended by over a hundred stakeholders representing the Government, clinicians, nurses and other healthcare professionals.
Mary Alexander, CEO, Infusion Nurses Society – US, in her video message said: “INS aims to set global standards in infusion nursing. We are committed to bringing innovative new resources and opportunities to healthcare professionals who are involved with the specialty practice of infusion therapy. Infusion is a very common but important nursing procedure, yet it does not receive as much attention in the medical world as it should. We plan to hold a series of conferences and seminars across India to disseminate knowledge about the latest standards and best practices in infusion therapy.”
