This course is more commonly delivered as part of the 22578VIC Course in First Aid Management of Anaphylaxis. It is designed for individuals who may need to provide first aid to someone experiencing anaphylaxis before medical help arrives. Participants will learn how to recognise common triggers, identify the signs and symptoms of allergic reactions and anaphylaxis, and follow standard first aid procedures, including the use of an adrenaline autoinjector in workplace or community settings. Some industries may require this unit to be completed more frequently, such as through annual updates.
This course provides nationally recognised training for workers, or nominated workplace first aiders, from any industry sector and addresses the provision of care to adults and/or children in the workplace who are diagnosed as being at risk of anaphylaxis or displaying signs/symptoms of anaphylaxis.
** There are specific industries that require additional training such as childcare workers, school teachers, and other related industries.
