As September 13 approaches, we can feel the anticipation for World Sepsis Day building. It's incredible how time flies, and we expect many events to take place. Among the activities lined up for this important day is the 7th Annual National Forum on Sepsis, presented by End Sepsis – The Legacy of Rory Staunton.
In the past year, END SEPSIS has made significant progress in making sepsis a top national priority. They have secured funding and support from the government and are developing new strategies to improve sepsis care. The END SEPSIS National Forum on Sepsis brings together leaders from various sectors to discuss recent gains and future plans. This event will take place in Washington, D.C., and will be live-streamed for a global audience.
We are excited to spread the word, so mark your calendars and join in person or virtually to be a part of this discussion. Together, we can make a difference in the fight against sepsis. Let's come together and ensure that sepsis is no longer a silent threat to our global community.
