This course is suitable for any person who is involved in the administration of adrenaline pens (currently Epipen and Jextpen) and needs to be aware of the diagnosis and treatment of anaphylactic allergic reactions.
Anaphylaxis is an extreme and severe allergic reaction. The whole body is affected, often within minutes of exposure to the allergen but sometimes after hours. Emphasis in training is placed upon understanding the difference with an allergy and an intolerance; thereby learning how to support a child or adult with those needs. We discuss allergy-avoidance and look at individual care-plans, how and where the auto-injector pens are stored safely. We go through various scenarios (on and off site for example) and so that everyone is equipped with how to deal with an anaphylaxis emergency. We are delighted to support the Spare Pens for Schools campaign and work in partnership with Ark Collaborations and Allergy UK.
