  1. Wendy Armes

    This module is particularly helpful in describing the different kinds of seizures and their causes. Information re schools is not completely relevant for care but useful to further learn about the children we care for.

  2. Lynda Hoy

    This course was more detailed that I expected and I now feel confident regarding Epilepsy Awareness.
