Treatment Of Severe Allergic Reaction

Learn how to recognize anaphylaxis and know when to administer an EpiPen.

Be prepared for the unthinkable.

OSU Registered Nurse, Robin Hinckley, will present to us the Oregon Health Authority’s training on how to recognize anaphylaxis and how/when to administer epinephrine. Know the symptoms, have a plan. It could happen to anyone, any day! Please join us on Zoom and bring your questions.

This will be a replay of a previously recorded presentation. There will be time for discussion afterwards.
