Abstract
Necrotising soft tissue infections are uncommon causing shock and concern. Centralised treatment might involve physical separation of patient and family during the acute stage of illness. Family accommodations near the patient and accessibility to adequate communication devices at the bedside are recommended. Health professionals need to keep in mind the importance of information and reassurance on the wellbeing of the family and ultimately of the patient.
