In older people, seizure activity and any associated behavioural changes can be subtle. It is important that aged care workers and carers know what to look for, can recognise the signs of seizure activity and can document it.
Epilepsy New Zealand will be providing a programme with a suite of Epilepsy in the Later Years resources for the aged care sector. The suite includes resources for older people living with epilepsy as well as their families, carers and aged care workers.
