Participants will learn how to administer oral diphenhydramine and Epinephrine by auto-injector (Auvi-Q, Epipen, Adrenaclik) and/or Quick Relief Asthma medication (Albuterol, Xopenex, etc.) by metered dose inhaler with spacer. 

Length: 2 hours (Note: if diphenhydramine/epipen or quick relief asthma only, the length is 1.5 hours)

Location: your site

Cost: $350

Number of Participants: The length and cost assume from 1 to 20 participants.  More may require additional time, and assistance with making copies, but I can train as many at one time as a program needs.  I have trained up to 100 at a single training.
