Epilepsy

EPILEPSY CONDITION

Epilepsy is a neurological disorder characterized by recurrent episodes of seizures, associated with abnormal electrical activity in the brain. Seizures may result in a temporary disturbance of motor, sensory or mental function. For Regional Center eligibility, the diagnosis must be made by a neurologist and the epilepsy is typically refractory to treatment, impairing an individual’s ability to care for self, communicate, or learn.
