Many children & teens are beginning a new year of school and we would just like to give important information and tips on dealing with seizures that could possibly take place at any time.

* Make sure that your school administration office & clinic knows that you have Epilepsy.  Bring in any information about the medications that you take as well.  That way it will not be a shock to them in case of an episode.

* Let your teachers and classmates know as well, so the can take proper precautions and first-aid in case an episode occurs.  Do not be afraid to let others know that you have Epilepsy!

* School bus drivers also need to be informed as well, in case an episode occurs while traveling.

*** Always carry medical identification. If an emergency happens, knowledge of your seizure disorder can help the people around you keep you safe and provide the appropriate treatment. 




If someone is having a seizure:
  • Loosen clothing around the person's neck.
  • Do not try to hold the person down or restrain them. This can result in injury.
  • Do not insert any objects in the person's mouth. This can also cause injury.
  • Reassure concerned bystanders who may be upset and ask them to give the person room.
  • Remove sharp objects (glasses, furniture, and other objects) from around the person to prevent injury.
  • After the seizure, it is helpful to lay the person on their side to maintain an open airway and prevent the person from inhaling any secretions.
  • After a seizure, the person may be confused and should not be left alone.
  • In many cases, especially if the person is known to have epilepsy, it is not necessary to call 911. 
  • Call 911 if the seizure lasts longer than 5 minutes, or if another seizure begins soon after the first, or if the person cannot be awakened after the movements have stopped. If you are concerned that something else may be wrong, or the person has another medical condition such as heart disease or diabetes, you should contact a doctor immediately.


Angels Of Epilepsy Foundation wishes & hopes a seizure-free school year for those living with Epilepsy!
