Abstract :

Epilepsy, being a chronic neurological condition necessitates the patient to be managed in the home care environment. This can impose considerable demands on their care givers and hence can lead to care giver burden. So, assessment and enhancement of knowledge of care givers regarding home care management of epilepsy through awareness programs forms the cornerstone toward a holistic approach to the disease.
