senario- Skyler seizure

Post by jia19 » Fri Sep 09, 2022 2:42 am

hi if anyone could help please

Skyler is a student in grade 1 who's health is pretty weak. Lately, she seems to be tired every day at school. She is pale and quiet. Her mother informed you and the teacher that Skyler was recently diagnosed with epilepsy and that she had two episodes last week. The mother told you that seizures might happen anytime.
Today, the teacher asked you to read a book to a group of students including Skyler. The students are all sitting in front of you on the floor on bean bags.
You notice Skyler is suddenly starring at the ceiling then her legs start making jerking movements. You realise that Skyler is having a seizure.
Describe how you will ensure Skyler is safe, cared for and her dignity is respected.
