Any A&E Nurses out there?

[Abdulmajid]

Can an A&E Nurse inform me if British hospitals store any anti-venoms or anti-venins in their casualty departments.

The most obvious risk is from the Adder, but are they routinely stocked?

Thank you.

zagreb antivenom is stocked in a&e departments as this treats adder bites.
Some hospitals with local attractions that house poisonous snakes/spiders might store antivenoms that are relevent to what yukky creatures are near by,
There is a hospital that specialises in tropical diseases in London and in Liverpool and these will house venoms. As will zoos and univerisities.

Very knowledgable goodsy.

I wonder if West Country hospitals stock anti-rabbit venom for the odd rock chick that is petrified of such bunny wunnys.
