People who care for allergic children - parents, teachers, school nurses and pre-school staff, for example - sometimes find information hard to come by.

The Anaphylaxis Campaign has produced 'Action for Anaphylaxis' – a training video that meets this need.

Particular attention has been paid to schools, but the video's messages will prove relevant wherever there are people with life-threatening allergies. The language has been kept straightforward and is easily understood by parents, teachers and others who have no medical background. The video covers the following topics:   • Revised information about treatment • Clear instructions on administering adrenaline by injection • A look inside a children’s clinic where a school nurse receives awareness training • A mock-up of an “emergency” involving an allergic child at school • An interview with John Warner, Professor of Child Health at Southampton General Hospital • Case histories of allergic reactions

All videos and DVD's are PAL and region 2 format
