It includes health and medical information specific to the patient and helps others recognize seizures and the appropriate steps to take to keep him or her safe from injury or damage caused by prolonged seizures.It is important to educate patients, healthcare providers, and the general public about the importance of Seizure Action Plans (SAPs).
