[quote=Anonymous]I am a nanny, have a severe allergy and have had to have an epipen on me at all times since first incident happened to me at 6 weeks old. At every annual checkup, my doctor always made sure my mom knew how to administer epipen and then gave her a dummy one to practice on me with (the epipens usually come with a dummy one to practice with now, but doctors almost always have them if your charge's did not) and then I had to practice as well when I was old enough to do so. Ask MB and DB if you can accompany child to next physical or doctor's appointment of any kind and ask doctor to walk you through it. This is completely normal. In your contract with NF(if you don't have one then you absolutely should) have them put a clause that says that you will not be liable if administration of epipen goes incorrectly and that you must maintain knowledge and confidence with knowing how to use epipen. Hope this helps. [/quote]
