Ahepans Mourn Passing of Longtime Hellenic Caucus Member, Brumidi Champion U.S. Rep. Bill Pascrell, Jr.

 

American Hellenic Educational Progressive Association

Contact: AHEPA Headquarters Phone: 202.232.6300 E-mail: ahepa@ahepa.org   For Immediate Release | August 21, 2024 Ahepans Mourn Passing of Longtime Hellenic Caucus Member, Brumidi Champion U.S. Rep. Bill Pascrell, Jr. Supreme President Savas C. Tsivicos has issued the following statement: The AHEPA family is deeply saddened by passing of U.S. Rep. Bill Pascrell, Jr. (D-NJ), a longtime, staunch member of the Congressional Caucus on Hellenic Issues. Congressman Pascrell always will be remembered fondly by the American Hellenic community as a lead sponsor of legislation to award posthumously Constantino Brumidi with the Congressional Gold Medal when he served as co-chair of the Congressional Italian American Caucus. Thanks to his passion and determination, the bill became law, and Brumidi, who was of Italian and Greek ancestry, received his long overdue honor. In his floor remarks, Pascrell graciously credited the dynamic coalition of Greek American and Italian American groups that advocated for the bill’s passage -- that included citing AHEPA specifically. Watch floor remarks (Pascrell's remarks 10 1/2 minutes in) Rep. Pascrell was a true friend of the American Hellenic community. He supported our community's domestic and foreign policy priorities and recently attended our 46th Biennial Congressional Banquet in May. Our deepest sympathies and condolences are with the Pascrell family. May his memory be eternal.  (Pictured: AHEPA Executive Director Basil N. Mossaidis and Daughters of Penelope Executive Director Elena Saviolakis with Congressman Pascrell, who proudly displays Brumidi's Congressional Gold Medal at the official ceremony in July 2012.)   Founded in 1922 in Atlanta, Georgia, on the principles that undergirded its fight for civil rights and against discrimination, bigotry, and hatred felt at the hands of the Ku Klux Klan, AHEPA is the largest and oldest grassroots association of American citizens of Greek heritage and Philhellenes with more than 400 chapters across the United States, Canada, and Europe.  AHEPA's mission is to promote the ancient Greek ideals of Education, Philanthropy, Civic Responsibility, and Family and Individual Excellence through community service and volunteerism.  For more information, please visit www.ahepa.org.

Sepsis Awareness Month: CDC Remains Committed to Improving Sepsis Recognition and Care


CDC is committed to focusing on sepsis all year, but Sepsis Awareness Month provides a special opportunity to honor the patients and families impacted by this life-threatening medical emergency and participate in concentrated efforts to raise awareness about sepsis. This year during Sepsis Awareness Month, CDC is highlighting new data showing that hospitals have strengthened sepsis programs to improve processes and the quality of patient care. Read more in our latest Safe Healthcare blog post.


Measuring U.S. Progress to Get Ahead of Sepsis

The Hospital Sepsis Program Core Elements, which were released in August 2023, help clinicians, hospitals, and health systems improve the identification, management, and outcomes of sepsis. Compared to 2022, hospitals showed improvements in the following areas in 2023:

78% reported having sepsis teams (up from 73%).
59% reported sufficient dedicated time for sepsis leadership (up from 55%).
66% reported their sepsis teams engaged with Antibiotic Stewardship Programs (up from 55%).




These data also highlight opportunities to strengthen hospital sepsis programs to optimize patient care. These areas include:
Improving awareness of sepsis signs and symptoms among certified nursing assistants and patient care technicians.
Evaluating the usability of local sepsis tools.
Implementing processes to support patients recovering from sepsis.
