“While our school nurses train staff on seizure care every year prior to the start of school and review specific student seizure care plans, our training comes at a time when teachers are inundated with the typical start-to-school year schedules, meetings, emails, etc.,…circl[ing] back to this important topic, [later in the year], provides staff with an additional opportunity to review and learn more information. Our staff repeatedly told me how beneficial they found the training and how it increased their confidence in the care and support of their own students”
