Course Overview

Government policy increasingly requires staff to be aware of anaphylaxis and its management. The focus is on the prevention of food anaphylactic reactions in individuals at risk in workplaces, schools and childcare settings based on the premise that all organisations in the community must assume responsibility for individuals at risk of anaphylaxis. This course will give you the knowledge of practical strategies to avoid exposure to known triggers and the management of anaphylaxis. Anaphylaxis Awareness instructs participants in the legal and proper administration of a adrenaline auto-injector (EpiPen). Instruction is in accordance with various legislative requirements regarding administration of therapeutic substances and covers administration of adrenaline via an auto-injector.
