I particularly liked Stella’s way of explaining and practical side of things. Stella was very professional and gave great ideas in order to train others ourselves.
Extremely clear delivery covering all topics to do with allergies/anaphylaxis and procedures from start to finish when someone has an allergy that’s chronic or fatal.
