Our Level 2 Allergy Awareness for Adult Social Care course is designed to equip care professionals with the essential knowledge to effectively handle allergies and manage allergic reactions in a care setting. This course is ideal for those currently employed in adult social care who wish to expand their skill set, as well as for employers seeking comprehensive allergy awareness training for their teams through an online platform.

The curriculum covers a broad range of topics essential to allergy management. Participants will explore various types of allergens, the distinction between allergies and intolerances, and best practices for interpreting food labels and packaging. Furthermore, the course delves into recognising the symptoms of allergic reactions, implementing risk-reduction strategies, and administering appropriate first aid when needed.

Learners in England will be awarded a nationally recognised Level 2 qualification upon successful completion.

In Scotland, this programme aligns with Level 5 of the Scottish Credit and Qualifications Framework (SCQF). Scottish learners will receive a digital certificate from their college, confirming their achievement upon finishing the course.
