<h3>Who are immunocompromised patients?</h3>
As the term implies, immunocompromised patients are patients whose immune systems are not as proactive relative to the standards of immunity in other patients.
On this note, it becomes a major responsibility of the nurse to reduce the risk of sepsis by ensuring thorough hand washing, use of aseptic techniques during invasive procedures among a host of other practices all in a bid to reduce the risk of sepsis.
