Our Epi-Pen auto injector online course and certification on the use of Epinephrine Auto-Injector may save the life of a child, particularly as more and more children – for unknown reasons, are vulnerable to developing dangerous allergies, such as peanut and other kinds of allergies, especially in the Western world. Learn to identify the signs & symptoms of anaphylaxis, and how to prepare and administer the auto-injector safely and quickly. Our online training course is appropriate for any parent, child-care taker, teacher, or therapist who is entrusted with the care of a child who has any type of potentially life threatening allergy. Learn to provide immediate care by administering the lifesaving epinephrine auto injector during a slim window of opportunity in which you can save a child’s life with confidence! 

Our certification course complies, with early intervention regulatory health and safety law: General Standard 7, in which providers protect the general health and safety of children with respect to illness, injury, and emergencies, as appropriate to the setting where services are delivered while EI services are provided: 7.1 Providers have written procedures to address child illnesses, including (among other criteria), responding to children with allergic reactions, and administration of first aid and CPR (if certified) or contacting appropriate medical personnel. This is especially so because the individual family service plan (IFSP) in some states require the identification of allergies on the IFSP document, particularly if the child receives feeding therapy from a speech or occupational therapist.

The General Standard mandates an imperative that providers protect children [with respect to] emergency [and respond with] first aid [for children] with allergic reactions; hence, the appropriateness of documented training and certification with respect to our epinephrine auto-injector online workshops and certification course prepared by board certified pediatricians, neonatologists, and emergency medicine physicians. 

Our unparalleled epinephrine auto-injection e-training curriculum exceeds standards provided by the American Red Cross, National Safety Council, the American Heart Association and other online courses, as our courses have been reviewed by board certified physicians in the field of emergency medicine, and because they are specifically geared toward the unique needs of the itinerant and facility based early intervention and pre-school populations - whether they be child or adult.Our e-training curriculum and course material is thoroughly reviewed by board certified physicians in the field of emergency medicine, neonatology and pediatrics. Learn to use both types of auto-injector devices - including the EpiPen and Twinject modes of delivery.

• Note – While the Twinject has been discontinued by the manufacturer  given the release of the new Auvi-Q injector (which requires no special training for usage, given its simple voice instructions), many twinjects are still in circulation, and may be used if the product has not yet expired. While the Epi-pen is no longer availble in single doses, it is still available for sale in 2-paks
