Paediatric Epilepsy Team - Blackpool, Fylde & Wyre

Description

The paediatric epilepsy team works with children and young people who have epilepsy, and their families to make sure that they can stay safe and healthy. They visit children and young people at home and also keep in touch over the phone.

The team teaches school staff, healthcare professionals and families how to look after and support children and young people with epilepsy. This is to help you feel safe and happy that you have the best care possible, and to enable you to reach your full potential!

The team also makes sure that parents and carers know how to give you rescue medicine when you have seizures.
