Quote / Testimonial:
Sepsis is a life-threatening condition and needs emergency treatment, usually in hospital. The symptoms of sepsis may be vague and not specific so seek medical advice immediately if you have concerns.
Currently around 250,000 people a year develop sepsis in the UK and of these about 46,000 die. You should always seek help if you, or anyone you’re with, develop the symptoms.
The Practice will be providing a copy of the Sepsis Leaflet below with all acute prescriptions of antibiotics to provide awareness, information and advice to patients and their carers and families on what to look out for.
