About this course

What the Epilepsy Level 3 course covers

Epilepsy Level 3 runs online from start to finish, so you decide when you study and how much you cover at a time. Budget roughly 1 to 2 hours for the 9 modules, less if the subject is already familiar. Nothing expires part way through, so an interrupted evening costs you nothing.

The course works through Defining epilepsy, Types of seizures, Administering first aid and Emergency medication. Another 5 modules follow, and the Modules tab lists every one of them.

Being Level 3, it assumes you want the detail rather than the overview - but you can start it cold. We list 134 Clinical Care courses, of which 9 sit at Level 3. At this length it is one of the quicker ones in the subject. The course is CPD accredited, so the time counts towards a CPD record, and your certificate is available to download as soon as you finish.
