Purpose
The nurse navigator facilitates the care of a patient with the diagnosis of sepsis across the healthcare continuum. This includes:

- Decreasing length of stay in skilled nursing facilities
The coordination of transition of care starts from the time of admission through the 90 day post acute period.
