Epilepsy specialist nursing

Located in Doncaster.

The epilepsy specialist nursing service operates throughout the Doncaster borough, collaborating with neurologists, GPs, private, and public voluntary sectors to aid patients with epilepsy across primary, secondary, and tertiary care in managing their condition.

We support consultant neurology clinics, conduct nurse-led clinics, work within the community, and provide a phone clinic or support service.

How we can help

We assist adults residing in Doncaster with a Doncaster GP and offer visits within the borough’s boundaries. Patients outside these boundaries need to attend a local clinic in Doncaster.

Our support includes:

  • listening to concerns, assessing presentations, and addressing epilepsy-related queries.
  • coordinating with various services to ensure a holistic approach to care.
  • offering timely support in the patient’s preferred setting.
  • providing educational sessions for patients and caregivers to understand epilepsy causes, types, and management.
  • providing ongoing support based on individual needs.
  • arranging face-to-face appointments at the patient’s home, outpatient clinic, workplace, or any suitable location.
  • operating a non-emergency phone service accessible to patients or their caregivers

We accept and respond to suitable referrals from any source, regardless of whether the patient has a neurologist or a confirmed epilepsy diagnosis.
