Allergy & Anaphylaxis Medical Orders & Protocol Through our partnership with Dell Children’s Medical Center & AISD Student Health Services, AISD has adopted a policy (FFAC) for standing medical orders & protocol to provide life-saving epinephrine to students who are at risk for anaphylaxis.

FFAC Allergy & Anaphylaxis Management Austin ISD’s life threatening allergy and anaphylaxis management plan was developed and implemented to care for students with a diagnosed or undiagnosed potentially life threatening allergy who are at risk for anaphylaxis.

FFAC addresses: Identification of students at risk Development of individualized care plan Increase knowledge of school staff regarding risk of allergies & anaphylaxis in school setting. Training school staff Maintenance, administration, disposal & replacement of epinephrine auto injectors.

Epinephrine auto injectors (EpiPens): Will be stored in a case near the Automated External Defibrillator (AED) case that is located by the front office at each campus. Available for use by any employee that identifies a student exhibiting symptoms of a life-threatening anaphylactic reaction.

2 EpiPen twinpacks are stored in a yellow storage box by AED at schools: Elem: EpiPen & EpiPen Jr MS & HS: EpiPen
