Allergy Aware

The Allergy Aware website is an anaphylaxis and allergy resource hub for schools and children's education/care (CEC) services. The website features Best Practice Guidelines that have been revised in 2023, which include risk minimisation strategies for prevention of severe allergic reactions (anaphylaxis) in schools and CEC services.

Adrenaline (Epinephrine) Training Devices

ASCIA anaphylaxis e-training courses should always be completed in conjunction with practice using adrenaline (epinephrine) training devices (EpiPen® and Anapen®), which do not have a needle and do not contain adrenaline:
