Description

Sepsis is a silent killer that affects millions of individuals every year. Nursing home residents are especially at risk of developing this deadly condition because any common infection can lead to sepsis. To protect our residents, early identification and prevention are key.  

In today's episode, we will hear from a national sepsis expert and a sepsis survivor. We will also discuss a free interactive resource to help put sepsis prevention at the forefront of your facility. 

We're joined by Viven Health’s Natasha Dickinson, DNP, MPH, FNP-C, RN, and Tom Ahrens, PhD RN FAAN; as well as sepsis survivor Kirsten Akin.
