Epilepsy Action believes that a patient care plan is an important tool in the overall treatment of people with epilepsy. Such a plan will improve communication between different groups involved in the care of people with epilepsy, both in the hospital and in the community.

It certainly is, we have a care plan at home where Social services worked with our local epilepsy nurse along with our consultant at The Epilepsy Society some 7 years ago.....it has worked pretty well for us as a family.
