Sepsis Patient Education from Hospital to Home [slide deck title]

Abstract

The Surviving Sepsis Campaign advocates for sepsis survivors to receive patient education during post-acute care, including home health care (HHC), to empower their self-care. Patient education is a key component of HHC. This qualitative study will:

  1. Characterize the self-care self-efficacy and knowledge regarding sepsis and its aftercare management among sepsis survivors recently discharged from hospitals and currently receiving HHC.
  2. Identify materials, content, mode of delivery, facilitators and barriers encountered, and strategies used by HHC nurses when delivering sepsis patient education.
  3. Describe barriers and facilitators influencing sepsis survivors' receipt and knowledge of sepsis aftercare management within HHC.
