About this course

Epilepsy as an awareness-training topic

What is Epilepsy? is a 15-minute course for care workers, support workers and nurses working with people who have epilepsy. It introduces epilepsy and seizure types, with further curriculum topics on triggers and seizure management. First aid and when to seek emergency assistance are included in the module list.

For broader care-learning topics, Care Planning covers assessment, goals and reviews. Preparing to Work in Care introduces values, responsibilities and professional standards for a care role. The epilepsy course’s catalogue details do not specify a practical first-aid assessment.
