Epilepsy Awareness Session for Primary Care October 2024
The Child Health and Wellbeing Network has worked collaboratively with the North East and North Cumbria Learning Disability Network to deliver an online interactive epilepsy awareness raising session for primary care professionals working with Children, Young People and Young Adults in the North East and North Cumbria on 10th October 2024.
The hour-long session was delivered by members of the Paediatric Epilepsy Leadership Group with input from Learning Disability Network Colleagues and gave an insight into epilepsy as a long term condition and how it affects children, young people, adolescents and young adults and provided practical tips about how to meet the needs of our epilepsy population. We also had the opportunity to hear from Epilepsy Action and made available a multi-disciplinary panel to respond to questions and queries from participants
