Seizure First Aid Ready, Presented by The Epilepsy Foundation

Описание: A seizure can be one of the first signs a child has a brain tumor, and it can remain as a late-term effect following treatment. Since seizures are one of the most common side effects, it is important to understand them and how to take care of someone having a seizure. The Pediatric Brain Tumor Foundation’s webinar, Seizure First Aid Ready, Presented by The Epilepsy Foundation, features a presentation by Erin Fecske, a pediatric nurse practitioner in the Comprehensive Epilepsy Center at Children’s Mercy Kansas City. Watch this on-demand webinar to become seizure first aid ready and learn about seizures and epilepsy, the correct and incorrect steps for helping a person having a seizure, and when it is necessary to call emergency personnel (911) in the event of a seizure.

The Pediatric Brain Tumor Foundation’s webinar series helps ease the social isolation and emotional distress families face after a child’s brain cancer diagnosis. These virtual events feature carefully chosen experts and patient families who share information, resources, and personal experiences relevant to the pediatric brain tumor journey and offer opportunities for parents, caregivers, survivors, and family members to ask questions.
