Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, most care providers and plan managers require Anaphylaxis training as a mandatory competency, especially if you are supporting a client with a known severe allergy.

In Australia, “Good Samaritan” laws generally protect individuals who provide emergency medical assistance in good faith. Our training ensures you act within the recognized First Aid protocols.
