Anaphylaxis Training
Courses / Anaphylaxis Training
In the UK, 17% of fatal allergic reactions in school-aged children happen at school. When severe allergic reactions occur, immediate action with an adrenaline auto-injector can be the difference between life and death.
Our practical half-day course equips your staff to confidently recognise anaphylactic emergencies and correctly administer EpiPen, Jext, and Emerade auto-injectors. Delivered by experienced NHS-trained paramedics across Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex and Cambridgeshire, this hands-on training ensures your team is prepared to respond effectively when every second counts.
Perfect for schools, nurseries, and workplaces, our on-site training meets Department for Education statutory guidance and provides the life-saving skills your team needs.
