What do people say about our training?
"Extremely valuable course from an experienced clinician. I appreciated the thorough discussion of pathophysiology, and I found the case studies to be especially interesting and informative. I didn't realise how much I didn't know, especially how anaphylaxis can be so subtle and variable. I highly recommend this to anyone who may need to manage anaphylaxis in their practice"Â
Doctor
"Excellent course material and presentation especially highlighted with multiple case scenarios explained in depth"
Doctor
"Excellent content and presentation. Case studies tied all the information together and reinforced knowledge"
Nurse
"Really excellent training. Clear and comprehensive discussion of patho-physiologic pathways leading to anaphylaxis ensures thorough understanding of what signs and symptoms, although possibly deceptively mild, require urgent response. This is reinforced by an excellent tick-box chart that takes the stress out of management decisions, in turn speeding up treatment and improving patient outcomes. The course and the accompanying charts (to be kept with resus trolley) completely take the stress from management decisions and indicate a clear action pathway in what is otherwise a highly stressful situation"
