Faecal Immunochemical Test

This course aims to support healthcare professionals in using FIT as a screening tool and appropriate use with symptomatic patients, aiding effective clinical decision making when referring patients on a suspected cancer pathway. Alongside a range of activities to reinforce key learning points, you will be presented with specialist interviews and two patient experiences, Simon Jenkins, and Beth Purvis, who did not fit the typical demographic for bowel cancer.
