This conference focuses on ensuring early diagnosis and effective management of Sepsis, and improving outcomes through effective after care following Sepsis infection.
“The UK’s Health Ombudsman has warned that sepsis is still taking too many lives due to the same hospital failings we were seeing over ten years ago… lessons are not being learned and repeated mistakes are putting people at risk.”
Parliamentary and Health Service Ombudsman October 2023
“The NHS needs to listen to patients and their families when they raise concerns. It needs to be sepsis-aware. We know early detection and treatment is crucial. It is time to make sure complaints count, and patients' voices are used to shape action on sepsis that is urgently needed.”
Rob Behrens Ombudsman, October 2023
“5 people die with sepsis every hour in the UK.”
UK Sepsis Trust 2023
