Jonathan Leeming is planning a visit to the Lowveld area in August for a series of private and public Scorpion Sting First Response courses and events. The focus is of developing the leadership skills to step up to the challenge of scorpion sting first response in an area that experiences its fair share medically important stings.
This is a great opportunity to step up to the leadership challenge of scorpion sting first response in your organisation and community. Attend a public event, host your own event or get a copy of the book, workbook and self study.
Arrange a course for your guides and staff, at your venue and when convenient. Cost is R880 per person and a place to stay overnight. Contact Jonathan for details Info@JonathanLeeming.com
The Essential Scorpion Sting First Response Course offers a new and innovative science based first response framework that reduces the chance of being stung by a scorpion, and if there is a sting, how to ensure the best possible outcome for stings in humans and animals.
This framework offers a new classification scheme that defines boundaries, indicate response, the progression of symptoms and timeframes, how to recognise symptoms that can be treated using first aid, and when professional medical intervention is required. First aid protocols are given to all participants. Everyone gets a flow diagram that shows step by step how to respond to a scorpion sting. Medical professionals that attend recieve the AfriTox scorpion envenomation guidelines.
Participants receive access to an Identification & First Response Guide To Scorpions Of The Lowveld. This guide includes images of Lowveld scorpions, their unique identification characteristics, which species look similar, as well as the typical symptoms and first response. Notes on frequency of stings, antivenom and urgency of the situation are also included.
Although the course and assessment is presented in English, the course content is presented in a visual, easy to understand and practical way without any complex language. For individuals where English is not their first language, Jonathan will be available to help individuals to complete the assessment. Everyone receives a certificate for the course regardless of the final mark.
