What is a Seizure Action Plan?

Seizure Action Plan Awareness Week 

Collaboration is in our DNA and that's why we are so pleased to be partnering with more than 75 Awareness Partners this week to recognize Seizure Action Plan Awareness Week. Epilepsy Alliance America is proud to be the managing organization of the Seizure Action Plan Coalition.

A Seizure Action Plan helps you respond quickly and confidently in critical moments. Be prepared. Make your plan today.

Everyone has a role to play. Health care providers make sure patients have plans that are up to date. Caregivers make sure to put into action the plans of those they love. And, anyone can take Seizure Recognition and Response training so that they are prepared if someone has a seizure.

A seizure action plan is not a piece of paper - it is peace of mind!

Seizure Recognition and Response Training

Seizure Recognition and Response Training

1 in 10 people will experience a seizure in their lifetime. Just like we learn Basic First Aid, CPR and the choking rescue technique to handle medical emergencies, knowing how to recognize and respond to seizures can be lifesaving. It's knowledge that empowers you to act when it matters most.  

Join us for Seizure Recognition and Response Training this Wednesday.

Survey: Let's Hear from You!

Let's Hear from You

Back in 2021, the Seizure Action Plan Coalition conducted a survey to learn more about Seizure Action Plans - who was using them and who wasn't. 

Since this is the FIFTH Seizure Action Plan Awareness Week, we thought it was time for some updated information!  Please consider taking this brief survey.

The survey will be open until February 28, 2025, and the summary data will be shared on the Seizure Action Plan Coalition website later this Spring.
