Introducing Sepsis in Primary Care

Sepsis is a time-critical medical emergency that often begins in the community, making early recognition in primary care essential for saving lives. This webinar, part of the National Sepsis Program, is designed to equip general practitioners (GPs), practice nurses, and primary healthcare providers with the knowledge and tools needed to identify, escalate, and manage sepsis effectively in primary care settings.

This webinar brings a panel of experts and consumers with lived experience and supports the launch of the eLearning modules for the early recognition and management of sepsis and post sepsis syndrome in primary care.

In this comprehensive, one-hour session, we will explore:

• Early warning signs of sepsis, including subtle and atypical presentations in children and postpartum women.

• Sepsis escalation protocols and when to refer patients for urgent hospital care.

• Post-Sepsis Syndrome (PSS) and survivor care, ensuring long-term recovery and reducing readmissions.

This webinar is ideal for GPs, nurses, urgent care clinicians, and all healthcare professionals who work in community, rural, and remote settings. Attendees will gain practical insights and evidence-based strategies to improve sepsis detection, treatment, and follow-up care.
