This training is split into two sections: Sepsis Awareness and Wound Care. In the first part, you’ll learn what sepsis is, how often it happens, and which people are more likely to develop it. You’ll also cover the warning signs, plus what to do next and how it’s treated. The second part focuses on simple wound care basics, and why they matter for lowering the chances of infection and sepsis. You’ll also look at infection control and why regular hand hygiene is such a big deal.
