FREE EPILEPSY Nurse Line

6/7/2020

Epilepsy Action Australia just wants to let you know about a FREE 1300 hotline that any of your residents can ring to get epilepsy-related advice. It’s called the Epilepsy Nurse Line, and it’s available from 9am to 5pm seven days a week in all Australian states and territories. The service is funded by, and endorsed by, the Australian Department of Health.

People simply call 1300 EPILEPSY (37 45 37) or email [email protected]

Every call is answered by a Registered Nurse with special training in epilepsy management. The Nurses on the helpline are qualified to answer questions about medications, lifestyle implications of epilepsy such as drinking alcohol, driving, playing sport or pregnancy, planning for the NDIS, employment, first aid, seizure management and more. The Nurses can also refer callers on to external services or more specialist Epilepsy Nurses and Consultants, if needed.
