Description
KEEPING KIDS ALIVE - In a partnership with the Nebraska Department of Education, Attack on Asthma Nebraska (AOAN) is the non-profit organization assisting schools with education, training and procurement of medications and supplies.
All schools in Nebraska – public, parochial and private – are now prepared to respond to life-threatening asthma and anaphylaxis emergencies. The protocol Emergency Response to Life-Threatening Asthma or Systemic Allergic Reactions (Anaphylaxis) trains school staff members to identify signs and symptoms of a “breathing emergency” and respond by calling 911, and administering EpiPen® followed by nebulized albuterol. All emergency response team members must be trained in CPR.
