Allergic Reaction: How to manage a medical emergency
When you’re working with students in particular, emergencies can happen off the field just as quickly as they do on the field.
Be prepared to utilize your life saving skills in every environment. The next addition to Go4’s binder ready series is a breakdown of allergic reaction medical emergencies.
