3 What does HEE do? Health Education England (HEE) exists to support the delivery of excellent healthcare and health improvement to the patients and public of England by ensuring that the workforce of today and tomorrow has the right numbers, skills, values and behaviours, at the right time and in the right place.

4 HEE Mandate Take steps to ensure that training is also available so that healthcare staff are competent in the recognition of, and response to, acute illness such as sepsis as a key factor in preventable mortality. Build on work started in 2015, including making available, by August 2016, a specific training module for sepsis. HEE will also make recommendations on any new materials identified as necessary from wider scoping work.

7 Sepsis the facts 37,000 deaths in the UK per year 35% mortality risk 1 in 3 ICU admissions 1 in 7 deaths in hospital Cost to the NHS in England: 2.5bn/year 70% of sepsis cases develop in the community

8 Quiz If you, or a loved one, has a flu-like illness, diarrhoea and vomiting or a chesty cough, which of the following symptoms should alert you to sepsis? 1. Slurred speech or delirium 2. Severe breathlessness 3. Skin that is mottled or discoloured 4. Anyone of the above

9 Scoping work Highlights numerous examples of good practice in relation to sepsis education and training. It also identifies clear gaps in the provision of sepsis education and training, particularly for healthcare staff working in community and primary care settings, management and executive staff within healthcare providers, and staff in permanent and nontraining roles.

10 Primary care: THINK SEPSIS E-learning package on the identification and management of sepsis in primary care. Sessions: 1. Overview of sepsis. 2. Adult sepsis. 3. Childhood sepsis. 4. Complex sepsis issues. 5. Care homes and the frail elderly.

11 Other learning material elfh secondary care learning sessions: 1. Assessment and Differential Diagnosis of Sepsis 2. Management of the Septic Patient (critical care) 3. Managing Sepsis (foundation doctors) An innovative interactive film Project Transform created by the Royal Surrey County Hospital NHS Foundation Trust in conjunction with The Health Foundation, the UK Sepsis Trust and HEE (

12 Future HEE initiatives Produce a guide for training providers to update sepsis training materials to reflect new guidance. Update sepsis training materials found on the elfh platform to reflect new guidance. Develop an interactive educational paediatrics sepsis session that will be used as an educational tool for health professionals. Explore the development of an e-learning module specifically targeting care home workers. Produce a sepsis educational package targeted at management and executive teams. Improve the delivery of education on sepsis in Primary Care through the development of robust learning materials, effective promotion and take up of these resources.
