Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask the Secretary of State for Health, what plans he has to provide public education on sepsis cases in adults.
The Department supports the activities and outputs of the NHS England cross-system sepsis programme board, and specifically the activities set out in the Second Cross-System Action Plan which was published in September 2017 and brings together the work on sepsis that is being taken forward nationally in the National Health Service in England.
The Action Plan includes activities on raising awareness and education for all health care professionals assessing patients with infections.
