Allergy Advocacy Association & University of Rochester School of Nursing Presents Epi Near You New York, a Free Workshop at University of Rochester School of Nursing
 
You never know when you might be called upon to administer epinephrine to save a life. Allergy Advocacy Association invites anyone who works with children or serves the public to a FREE training seminar given by Dr. Kirsi Jarvinen-Seppo and Jon Terry in administering epinephrine in an anaphylaxis emergency.  This free informational training program, Epi Near You New York, was created by the Allergy Advocacy Association because we think no one should die of anaphylaxis for want of a basic information the required medication that is simple to administer.
 
To those representing educational or public facing entities attending our New York State approved training, a non-patient-specific prescription for epinephrine is available to you if you choose to stock epinephrine for your students or customers.
 
Dr. Jarvinen-Seppo is the Director of the Center for Food Allergy at Golisano Children’s Hospital, a multidisciplinary program centered on providing care to families with food allergies.  Dr. Jarvinen-Seppo is also an Associate Professor of Pediatrics and Chief of Pediatric Allergy and Immunology at the University of Rochester School of Medicine and Dentistry in Rochester, NY.  She has extensive clinical experience and is a nationally recognized research scientist.
 
Jon Terry is the Founder of the Allergy Advocacy Association of Brockport, NY. As its done since 2010, Allergy Advocacy Association gives free informational programs on all aspects of allergies, anaphylaxis, and epinephrine availability.
