How to administer your adrenalin injector

Session Date and Time: Saturday 22nd May 2010, 14.00 - 14.20

Synopsis:

A short demonstration on the correct way to administer your adrenalin injector using both a real device and a trainer pen plus advice on how to manage an emergency situation.

Speaker:

Mandy East has been the National Coordinator for the Anaphylaxis Campaign for the past 7 years and also works for the National Allergy Strategy Group as the Parliamentary Officer coordinating the ongoing campaign to improve NHS allergy services. Both these roles mean she is in regular contact with those who live with allergy day to day as well as the medics who care for them and as a result she is excellently placed to advocate on their behalf.  Mandy facilitates support groups and meetings for parents of allergic children as well as for those living with allergy themselves and also travels the country giving much needed information to schools and youth groups on the best way to manage an allergic child.
