Sepsis Alliance Connect Presentation: Exercise after Sepsis
September 20, 2023 @ 6:00 pm - 7:00 pm
Date: September 20, 2023
Time: 6 pm ET
Description:
Starting fitness activities after surviving sepsis can be challenging due to factors like limb loss or a lack of stamina. From a healthcare perspective, rehabilitation and occupational therapy often stop when someone can perform basic activities of daily life. What support options are there for moving beyond these activities toward rebuilding strength and endurance? In this presentation, learn how a personal trainer or other professional can help with adaptations and strategies to make exercise more attainable. You’ll also learn some simple exercises that you can do on your own, and watch demos with sepsis survivors. The presenter will share how to find a trainer or other professional, as well as resources to make it more affordable.
