Early Years Policy - Managing Anaphylaxis
This policy will provide guidelines to:
- minimise the risk of allergic reaction resulting in anaphylaxis occurring while children are in the care of Council's Early Years Services
- ensure service staff respond appropriately to anaphylaxis by following the child’s ASCIA action plan for anaphylaxis
- raise awareness of anaphylaxis and its management through education and policy implementation.
This policy should be read in conjunction with the Early Years Policy – Managing Medical Conditions (below).
