Every child who presents with a first afebrile seizure should be given a first seizure pack. 

The first seizure pack contains important information for families. The first seizure pack includes:

• General safety
• Seizure first aid
• An event record for families to document any additional seizures
• A PENNSW flyer.  

We've also produced a video that explains what happens after the first seizure and provides useful supervision and safety information.  

Important note: The education video relates to a first afebrile seizure (i.e. seizure without fever). It is NOT for febrile convulsions. The video includes general advice only, and does not take into account individual medical conditions or needs.

Further seizure safety information see Safety and Epilepsy. The legal requirements for driving following a first seizure can be found in AUSTROADS Assessing Fitness to Drive.
