Happy Purple Day! It was a busy morning at the QEUH as we held a special event to mark this international epilepsy awareness day.![]()

We were joined by Epilepsy Nurses, Consultant Neurologists, Epilepsy Scotland and Paediatric Nurses, as well as a Student Nurse from Quarriers, to support the many patients, relatives and carers who came along for advice, practical help – and just a bit of fun.![]()

A range of staff, from nurses to receptionists, also attended the event to learn more about areas such as epilepsy first aid and rescue medication, and to pick up information for sharing with patients/relatives in their own area.![]()
