WATCH: This National Epilepsy Week, learn what to do when someone has a seizure

12 February saw the commencement of National Epilepsy Week, so why not educate yourself on the right thing to do when someone suffers a seizure.

The aim of Epilepsy Week is for health organisations and entities to educate the public on the importance of doing the right thing when someone suffers a seizure.

Leading up to the week, ER24 ran a poll on its Twitter and Facebook platforms, asking whether the person voting knew what to do when someone suffers a seizure.

Even though the majority of voters answered correctly on both polls, ER24 published a video showing those who do not know what to do, how to behave when someone suffers a seizure.
