overview
Sepsis Awareness Training – This ½ day blended learning course covers the physiological background to sepsis as well as application of knowledge to a clinical setting. It provides evidence based teaching of common causes, how to identify sepsis, treatment and the trajectory of untreated symptoms.
why is it important?
• Sepsis affects 25,000 children in the UK every year. (Royal College of Nursing)
• It kills 5 people an hour….52,000 a year.
