Question

What should you do in an emergency when a child suddenly has an epileptic seizure while playing in the park?

Answer

  1. Quickly support the child to prevent them from falling and place them on a safe surface.
  2. Loosen the child’s collar and sleeves to keep the airways clear, and turn their head and body to one side to allow any secretions to drain.
  3. Stay with the child during the seizure until the symptoms stop.
  4. Observe the area of the seizure and note if the child is conscious and aware, as well as record the duration of the seizure.
  5. After the seizure stops, perform necessary cleaning and comforting to help the child relax emotionally.
