The Seizure Clinic
Abnormal movements in a child can provoke immense anxiety and distress for them, and their family. Seizures, no matter the cause, can pose significant risks to a child if left unmanaged.
In many cases, it can be challenging to decipher a cause, and families end up embarking on long-winded journeys in search of answers.
This is why it is important to arrange a timely consultation with a Paediatrician with expertise in managing seizures. If you are concerned that your child had or is still having seizures or other abnormal movements, you can book a consultation now.
The Seizure Clinic Consultation Includes:
- No wait list
- First seizure assessment by a Paediatrician with expertise in epilepsy
- Thorough examinations and developmental assessment
- Access to prompt investigations including MRIs* and EEG* (no long wait list there either!)
- Appropriate and timely treatment where needed
- Same day output of clinic letters
- Instant access to clinic letters, results, prescriptions and care plans through your Portal account
- Individualised Seizure Care Plan*
All children with seizures will be offered a KKN Individualised Seizure Care Plan* and Travel Letter. This is a best-practice standard for any child or young person with epilepsy.
A Care Plan assists in integrating your child in other settings, like school, with careful descriptions of their seizures and clear escalation plan/advice for all carers.
