What kind of help is needed: How to care for a child with epilepsy who remains sitting still and motionlessDoctor's answer:
Nursing Care for Epilepsy in Daily Life (1) Children with epilepsy should establish a good living routine, with their lives being regular. They can engage in appropriate light physical labor but should avoid overexertion and tension. (2) The diet for children with epilepsy should consist of highly nutritious and easily digestible foods. They should eat more light, vitamin-rich vegetables and fruits and avoid overeating. (3) Children with epilepsy should try to avoid dangerous places and hazardous materials. They should not participate in high-altitude entertainment activities or highly intensive training, such as mountain climbing, ice skating, or cycling. Children should not be left alone by the river or near the stove, and they should not go out alone at night.
