Essential epilepsy: from presentation and referral to regular review
Epilepsy is a complex condition requiring ongoing care, and GPs must be aware of the long-term needs of the patient and the role of the multidisciplinary team in ensuring the patient maintains their quality of life. This three-part ALM provides comprehensive education on the initial assessment, identification and management of epilepsy, as well as the management of complex cases of epilepsy involving specific needs, and includes a patient review exercise to support specialist referral.
