Management of Anaphylaxis Course
Course Introduction
Who should attend?
- An Anaphylactic shock, or anaphylaxis, is a life-threatening, serious allergic reaction to an allergen such as food substances or insect stings.
- If it is not treated appropriately, it may cause death.
- The UK is one of the top countries in the world for incidence of allergies.
The likelihood is that someone in your school could have a severe allergy and this must form part of your First Aid needs assessment.
- Our one-day Level 3 Management of Anaphylaxis Course is for qualified First Aiders and Emergency First Aiders to enable them to recognise and treat anaphylaxis safely and effectively.
- The syllabus for this course meets the HSE and Resuscitation Council (UK) training recommendations.
- This course is suitable for all First Aiders and healthcare professionals, as well as those in a high-risk environment where such medication is available.
Also, those who provide childcare and workplace First Aiders, in the leisure and catering industries, or who have to deal with those prone to anaphylaxis should also attend.
- You must have a current First Aid at Work or Emergency First Aid at Work certificate to attend.
