This year’s program features forward‑looking presentations from clinicians, researchers, innovators, patient advocates, and national leaders who are shaping the future of sepsis care. 
Healthcare professionals can earn free AMA PRA Category 1 Credit(s)™ or RN CE credits through engaging, practice-focused sessions that explore the latest science, technologies, and system‑level strategies driving improvement in sepsis outcomes.

• List system-level drivers of quality improvement, such as SEP-1, CDI, HVBP, certification pathways, and collaborative models which can be developed into sustainable sepsis care programs; 
• Evaluate innovative tools, including artificial intelligence, advanced diagnostics, and media-based education, to enhance personalized sepsis management; 
• Apply trauma-informed approaches that address the experiences of co-survivors and foster healthcare environments that support patients, families, and providers.
