Course of the week – Anaphylaxis

Keith

AnaphylaxisThis course is aimed at anyone who requires a course in anaphylaxis awareness. The course covers the use of Epi-Pens, Emerade and Jext as well as recognition of signs, treatment, concerns and activating the EMS as well as care for the patient. We have a 100% classroom course for this and the certificate is valid for three years. To renew complete the same course again. When you have successfully completed the online or the classroom course, you will be issued a ProTrainings wall certificate and wallet card.

Some of our online and classroom courses also include Anaphylaxis training and in some cases this course can be integrated with another course and dual certified by ProTrainings.

Many courses just cover the EpiPen and do not mention other types of auto injector, on ProTrainings douses we mention the main three auto injectors including the latest Emerade unit.  The content of this and all our courses has been independently certified as conforming to universally accepted Continuous Professional Development (CPD) guidelines and come with a Certified CPD Statement as well as a ProTrainings Certificate and for online courses an Evidence Based Learning statement.
