Did you know that people with allergies and asthma account for almost 20% of the population and that number is on the rise? Peanut allergies alone have tripled in the past 5 years. The needs of this increasing population are putting Canadian establishments to the test. *
Are you ready?
The AllergyAble™ Requirements have been developed by Catilyst, a division of Strategus Inc. in partnership with the National Quality Institute (NQI) to assist establishments in meeting the physical, service quality, and safety needs of people with allergies – whether they are staff, clients, patients, or customers.
These Requirements can be implemented in two steps, or be addressed at the same time for establishments with a history of meeting the needs of people with allergies.
AllergyAble™ also offers a valuable training course to create awareness and provide imperative information to help organizations prepare for emergency situations and outlines procedures for day-to-day prevention activities following the AllergyAble™ guidelines.
AllergyAble™ aims to help people with allergies live better lives at home, at work and at play!
