Re: Sepsis

My husband had sepsis last January and we can't fault the way it was dealt with.

The doctor called for an ambulance within minutes of examining him and they arrived 10 minutes later, put him on a saline drip and just over 40 minutes after walking into the Doctors surgery, John was in Resus, the blue light ride into to central Manchester in the rush hour was errrr intestesting. A team of doctors and nurses were on standby. He immediately had blood tests taken, was connected to monitors, oxygen and was hooked up to intravenous antibiotics.

I know things can go wrong but when they go right you realise just how marvelous our NHS can be.
