Epilepsy and Seizure Management Policy and Procedure
An editable NDIS epilepsy and seizure management policy and procedure for providers supporting participants who have epilepsy or experience seizures. It applies in all service settings, including community access and transport.
What is inside:
- Purpose, scope and definitions, including seizure types, status epilepticus and the post-ictal phase
- Worker requirements: training overseen by a qualified health practitioner, competency assessment, annual refresh and first aid
- Epilepsy Management Plans and Emergency Medication Management Plans, and when they are reviewed
- Seizure first aid: time it, protect from injury, no restraint, nothing in the mouth
- Emergency medication such as buccal midazolam, given only when prescribed and delegated
- When to call 000, post-seizure care, and managing triggers and water safety
- Incident reporting, records and evidence, related documents and legislation table
Good to know: epilepsy and seizure management is not one of the supports in the High Intensity Daily Personal Activities Module. Workers who give emergency medication need a current written delegation.
