When introducing epilepsy, we must first recognise that there are around 40 different types of seizures. Statistics show that one in five people will have a seizure at some time in their life although only some of these will be caused by epilepsy.
Epilepsy is a neurological condition that affects the brain and the nervous system and is covered by the Equality Act 2010. The condition can affect people for only a portion of their life or it can be lifelong. Because of the varied nature of the condition an awareness of epilepsy and the actions you can take if you are present during a seizure is incredibly useful for those who work in health and social care.
This course will give you an overview of epilepsy. It lists the methods of diagnosis, what a seizure is and how the brain can be affected. It will introduce some possible seizure triggers and describe what to do when someone has a seizure. It will also discuss some of the treatments offered to people with epilepsy and provide practical advice on what you can do if you witness someone having a seizure.
Approximately 30 minutes are required for this course.
A short test concludes each module. A passmark of 70% for each module is required to successfully pass the course.

“I attended a ‘First Aid at Work’ course with Louise in November 2017.
The course was well run, good demonstrations and plenty of interaction between participants. There was a good mix of theory and practical work and everyone was encouraged by Louise. Whilst the course has a serious content, Louise ensured that it was delivered in a lighthearted way and made it easy for everyone to learn.
I would recommend DG Training.”
