Understanding Anaphylaxis
Our Understanding Anaphylaxis training courses ensure your staff can understand and identify what anaphylaxis is and how to treat and deal with emergency situations in educational settings. This training is great for those working with or around children, including childminders, and those working in food preparation in these institutions.
Description
Did you know, anaphylactic reactions usually start within minutes, but can occur up to 2-3 hours later? It’s essential for anyone working with children, whether in an educational setting or another, to learn about anaphylaxis in children and young adults as an anaphylactic reaction is potentially life-threatening and requires emergency response immediately.
