Our Mission
PAME’s mission is to convene, educate and inspire all stakeholders – from the bereaved to those living with epilepsy, to health care professionals, advocates, clinical and basic scientists, and death investigators – to promote understanding and drive prevention of epilepsy-related mortality.
Prevention Toolkit
The Preventing Epilepsy Deaths Toolkit is a practical resource for families and clinicians. It provides information and training videos for health care providers on how to assess risk and educate patients and their families. It also offers patient education information including a handout and a preparing for an office visit form.
