The Bills of Rights for People Living With Epilepsy

2. People living with epilepsy have the right to receive comprehensive, understandable information about epilepsy and its treatment.
People living with epilepsy and their families should receive easy-to-understand and up-to-date information about the condition, including information about treatment options related to their specific seizure type and current research. This information should be given at the initial diagnosis and during the treatment process.

People living with epilepsy are encouraged to ask their doctor to review, explain and interpret their medical tests (e.g. MRI, blood tests, EEG, etc.) with them so they will become more informed about their condition.

Non-English speaking people living with epilepsy are encouraged to ask for information from their healthcare provider in their native language.
