Nursing support of epilepsy self-management.
Self-management techniques for epilepsy can encompass any treatment or behavior that may enhance seizure control, minimize side effects and risks, promote adaptation, and enhance quality of life. Nursing support of self-management involves assessing a variety of factors, but, ultimately, nurses' promotion of responsibility and their offer of support and care may make the most difference in the success of any self-management approach.
