Ep. 043: Sepsis Recovery Beyond Discharge

Sepsis survivor Rebecca Ferguson shares the hidden reality of post-sepsis syndrome and the years-long toll it took on her life. She reflects on the support that helped her survive, the gaps she encountered after discharge and the difficult path toward recovery. Her story urges nurses to look beyond the immediate crisis and recognize that healing may continue long after a patient leaves the hospital.
