πŸ’œ Can We Trust Epilepsy Information Online?

There is a lot of information about epilepsy online, but not all of it is accurate or reliable.

Before we trust or share something we find, it can help to ask:
πŸ”Ž Who published it?
πŸ“… Is it up to date?
πŸ“š Does it provide reliable and relevant sources?
⚠️ Does it make claims that sound too good to be true?

Online resources can be a helpful starting point for learning about epilepsy, but they shouldn't replace advice from our healthcare team.

πŸ’œ Pause. Check. Learn.

What do you look for when deciding whether health information online is reliable?

πŸ’œ What Do You Wish People Would Know?

Imagine a new friend asked:
πŸ’¬ β€œWhat would you like me to know about epilepsy?”

Starting with a question can create space for connection and understanding. What would you want a new friend to know?

Today is International Day of Older Persons

Epilepsy can be part of life at any age, and everyone deserves access to information, support and meaningful connections.

At the BC Epilepsy Society, our facilitated peer groups include opportunities for older adults to connect with others who understand. πŸ’œ

Today, we’re celebrating older adults in our community and the experiences, knowledge and connections they bring.

🧑 National Day for Truth and Reconciliation

Today, we honour the Survivors of residential schools, remember the children who never returned home, and recognize the lasting impacts of the residential school system on Indigenous Peoples, families and communities.

Truth and Reconciliation calls on all of us to listen, learn, reflect, and take meaningful steps toward reconciliation.

Today and throughout the year, we can continue learning about the history and ongoing impacts of residential schools and supporting Indigenous-led efforts toward healing and reconciliation.

🧑 We remember. We listen. We learn.
