When A Loved One Has Sepsis
When a loved one is diagnosed with Sepsis or Septic Shock?
A Sepsis and/or Septic Shock diagnosis is often sudden and very alarming for the patient as well as the family. Our partners at the Sepsis Alliance have developed this resource guide for family members and caregivers to help answer many questions that may come up when a loved one is admitted to the intensive care unit, for sepsis or septic shock to discharge with some information on what life may look like in recovery.
