🚨 SEPSIS AWARENESS MONTH 🚨
Sepsis is a life-threatening reaction to an infection. It can develop quickly, so knowing the warning signs could save a life.
Symptoms may include:
⚠️ Confusion or slurred speech
⚠️ Breathing very fast or difficulty breathing
⚠️ Blue, pale, grey or blotchy skin
⚠️ A very high or very low temperature
⚠️ A rash that does not fade when pressed
⚠️ Passing very little or no urine
Someone with sepsis may not have every symptom. Trust your instincts—if you suspect sepsis, call 999 or go to A&E immediately.
