The Joint Commission’s Certificate of Distinction for Sepsis Care recognizes health care organizations that demonstrate excellence in early identification, timely treatment and ongoing management of sepsis, a life-threatening condition that requires rapid, coordinated care.

Early recognition and prompt treatment of sepsis are critical and can be lifesaving.”
Dahman said the certification focuses on early identification, rapid intervention, a multidisciplinary team approach and ongoing education. As part of the process, the hospital implemented established protocols and rapid response systems designed to improve patient outcomes.
“These efforts are saving lives and ensuring the best possible outcomes for patients in our community,” Dahman added in a press release. “We are grateful to our health system and every member of our team for fostering an environment that prioritizes patient safety.”
