I once had a patient on a med-surgical unit who had sepsis because of cellulitis on her leg. It was horrible. It is something that needs to be educated and I’m glad to know September is going to be Sepsis awareness month. Also, on the other topic of should we call our nurse practitioner doctor, well, my two cents is that I go see a nurse practitioner for my doctor because I live in the US and Insurance is way too costly for me to see an MD. I am tired of living in a country that doesn’t care about it citizens.
