This course is designed to raise your awareness and develop your understanding of Buccal Midazolam, your role as a health and social care worker, and the expectations in Health and Social Care
The course begins by explaining what Buccal Midazolam is and its availability. This module also looks at different emergency treatments which stop seizures, including Buccal Midazolam, and how to recognise side effects. Safe storage and disposal of Buccal Midazolam are also included in this section.
Module 2 explains what seizures are and when to administer emergency treatments. It looks at triggers that can cause seizures, different seizure types and their signs and symptoms. This module provides information defining ‘status epilepticus’ and how to prevent this by administering emergency treatment. First aid for individuals experiencing seizures is also addressed.

Level 3 AET was incredible. Loved it
"I loved the entire process as it was well supported with resources and templates. I enjoyed filling out the booklet and learning new things. The professional discussion with Zoe was the highlight of the program. It's just so good to talk to a fellow trainer outside of work and learn from each other. Highly recommend the course of level 3 AET!"
