Epilepsy ACT offers training in how to administer emergency medication, such as Midazolam, for the management of seizures.
Midazolam is an emergency medication that is used in the control of seizures. It is a restricted medication that has been approved for community use in certain situations and always prescribed by a Doctor. Training is provided to organisations and individuals who work with people that are prescribed this medication. The training is conducted by a registered nurse.
Those who care for or work with people with explicit Midazolam or other seizure management emergency medication requirements e.g: schools, Universities, CIT/TAFE, workplaces, aged care facilities, care organisations, non government organisations, community groups and individuals.
Training will be provided when the following criteria are met:
The following will be covered during the workshop.
A handout is provided which contains information and examples of safe use of midazolam in the community and some of the associated documentation.
