Allergies, Anaphylaxis & Epinephrine Course

 

Questions, and Description:

 

  • What's going on inside the human body when it has an allergic over-reaction?
  • What are the signs and symptoms as the reaction progresses in to life-threatening anaphylaxis, and why?
  • When and how do we treat the allergic reaction, to save the life?
    • Treatment if an ambulance help is very nearby
    • Different treatment for when one is far from ambulance care
  • Why do we do the different treatments, when we do?
  • What do the treatments actually do, inside the body?

 

In this course, participants will:

  • learn the answers to all of the questions above, and more;
  • hands-on practice the skills  learned, in different scenarios; and
  • come away with the 2-year SOLO "Anaphylaxis & Epinephrine Training" certification card.

  • "The explanations were clear, and the hands-on practical session was very helpful to cementing the information learned in class."
  • "It was more hands-on than expected."
  • "I didn't expect it to cover scenarios.  The details about wilderness vs. close-to-hospital were helpful.
  • 'More detail than I had received in prior classes."
