The Epilepsy Specialist Nursing service (ESN) provides diagnosis and treatment for adults with complex epilepsy and learning disability. Referrals are accepted directly from patients, carers, Community Learning Disability Teams, GPs, and Secondary Healthcare professionals.
The ESN works in partnership with Neurology Services at Nottingham University Hospitals and Specialist Learning Disability Services locally, to provide an integrated and holistic service to adults with epilepsy and their carers living in Nottinghamshire.
The ESN provides regular community based and hospital clinics, school clinics for children in transition to adult services, and training opportunities to healthcare staff, Social Services, and community based care providers.
