Frequently Asked Questions
Your Questions, Answered with Care
01What is epilepsy?
Epilepsy is a neurological condition that affects the brain and causes recurring seizures. Seizures can look very different depending on the person and type, from sudden jerking to moments of blankness. It’s often a lifelong condition, but with the right support, it can be managed effectively.
02Which symptoms are associated with epilepsy?
Everyone experiences epilepsy differently. Common symptoms include:
- Jerking or shaking (known as a “fit”)
- Staring blankly or losing awareness
- Sudden stiffness
- Unusual sensations, like a rising feeling in the tummy or strange tastes or smells
- Tingling in the limbs
- Collapsing or passing out and not remembering what happened
03How are your care teams trained to support people with epilepsy?
Our team receives in-depth training from expert clinicians, ensuring they understand the many forms epilepsy can take and how to respond with calm, skilled care. Training includes seizure response, medication support, and working with healthcare professionals to adapt care as needed.
04How is epilepsy diagnosed?
A specialist might suggest tests like an EEG to look at brain activity or a brain scan to spot any underlying cause. But even if nothing shows up on a scan, diagnosis can still be made based on your symptoms and medical history. What matters is getting you the support you need.
05Can you live a fulfilling life with epilepsy?
Absolutely. With the right care and understanding, many people with epilepsy live full, independent lives. We’ll be here with you through it all, helping you manage your symptoms, build routines that work for you, and regain confidence in your daily life.
