Sepsis: Health Education
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, whether there is a dedicated communications budget within his Department for sepsis awareness.
Answered by Ashley Dalton
The Department does not currently have a dedicated communications budget for sepsis awareness.
NHS England has several training programmes aimed at improving the diagnosis and early management of sepsis among healthcare professionals. These programmes are regularly reviewed and revised with support from subject matter experts as updated national sepsis guidance is implemented. Furthermore, individual National Health Service trusts may choose to implement public awareness campaigns and initiatives on sepsis locally.
