Seizure Training for School Staff & Nurses
In the United States, there are a staggering 470,000 children who live with epilepsy.
Despite its prevalence, epilepsy remains widely misunderstood by the general public. For students coping with this condition, it is crucial that schools are equipped with the necessary tools to create a safe and nurturing environment.
To date, 21 states have passed Seizure Safe Schools legislation that mandates school personnel to complete seizure recognition and first aid training.
