Sepsis can and does affect people of all ages. However, more than 80% of sepsis cases occur among people aged 50 years and older. This 'Sepsis and Aging' information guide, provided by Sepsis Alliance, provides an overview of what sepsis is, how sepsis occurs, why it's so serious, how it can be prevented and treated. 

When the Faces of Sepsis section of the Sepsis Alliance site was established, they received hundreds of stories from family members who were unexpectedly placed in the position of giving care to a survivor who was left with long-lasting and life-altering complications from sepsis or septic shock. It became increasingly clear that these caregivers felt alone, without support. To address this, the Sepsis Alliance team put together a caregiver guidebook.

This educational content, provided by Sepsis Alliance, is a one-page document providing an overview of critical sepsis facts, who gets sepsis, what causes it, what are the symptoms, can it be prevented.

This is a downloadable, printable, information guide, provided by Sepsis Alliance, in Spanish intended for public, patient, caregiver education on 'Sepsis and Bacterial Infections'. The information guide provides an overview of the bacterial infections and sepsis.

A healthcare-acquired infection (HAI) is an infection that is contracted while you are in a healthcare facility, such as an acute care hospital or a skilled nursing care facility. This information guide, provided by Sepsis Alliance, reviews key about healthcare-acquired infections, prevention, and how any infections can lead to sepsis. 

The long-term care sepsis screening tool was created by Superior Health to help skilled nursing facilities identify residents with sepsis. It is recommended to complete the screening upon admission, with any new suspected or confirmed infections and any change in condition. Superior Health also created a two-part video series on the early recognition and management of sepsis in the long-term care setting and how to start a sepsis Quality Assurance and Performance Improvement (QAPI) project.

Small patient volumes in rural hospitals often distort quality data. By employing innovative methods to communicate low-frequency patient safety events that reflect these small volumes, we can more accurately share our safety story and highlight the outstanding work done in rural hospitals. The Convergence Health Infrequent Events Calculator can transform your data, offering insights that go beyond a run chart to effectively convey your quality and patient safety narrative!
