Safety

Being safe is important. Learn how to make the surroundings safer to prevent injury if a seizure occurs. Teach others what to do if they see a person having a seizure.

Guidelines for Preventing Injuries

For all Patients:
  • Treat epilepsy aggressively
  • Minimize medication side effects
  • Never swim alone
  • Exercise regularly to maintain bone mass
For Patients at Higher Risk:
  • Avoid unsupervised bathing
  • Minimize burn risks
  • Wear helmets (for selected patients)
  • Avoid high places
