This course aims to raise awareness about epilepsy and the management of seizures. We look at the different types of seizure, how they are diagnosed as well as some of the treatments available. We provide essential first aid guidance to support a person having a seizure caused by epilepsy. We cover care planning and risk management with some case studies and provide links to further guidance.
