Thank you for joining my cause to reduce the burden of scorpion stings in southern Africa at all levels of society in southern Africa. As a first responder you play an important role as the first person on the scene, and as the person who the patient looks to for help and as the person who has a profound influence on what happens after a scorpion sting event. The following resources are adapted from the Essential Scorpion Sting First Response Book. They offer support in your leadership role within your organisation and community. If you do not have a copy go the book, please consider supporting my work by purchasing a copy.
