We are delighted to be hosting a Self-Management Programme for Adults with Epilepsy from February 12th to March 4th.
The programme is commonly known as STEPS within our services, as with each passing week of attending the programme, attendees can build on the STEPS taken to better self-manage their condition. As a person progresses on their individual journey with epilepsy, learning how to effectively self-manage their condition is a vital skill to learn to help prevent epilepsy from being a barrier to their lives.
There are several key objectives to our STEPS programme, which include:
- Meeting others with epilepsy and providing a platform to learn from one another.
- Learning more about how to manage one’s own Epilepsy.
- Learn about the individual aspects of epilepsy management.
- Undertaking actions to improve a person’s self-management of epilepsy.
- Learning strategies to help overall well-being
- Becoming confident in managing your own epilepsy
If you are interested in learning more about how to improve the self-management of epilepsy, please come along and join us for our latest STEPs offering. Further details about the programme and how to register are outlined below and if you have any further questions about this event, please get in touch with our Community Resource Officer Agnes Mooney by emailing amooney@epilepsy.ie.
We look forward to welcoming you to this event on each of the four mornings of the programme’s duration.
