Our award-winning EpSMon app

EpSMon app

A digital tool for reducing risks

 Living with epilepsy is not easy but EpSMon can help you understand your own personal epilepsy risks so you can make informed decisions about when to book GP appointments and review your care plan.

Seizures are different for everyone. This easy-to-use app will help you track things, providing key info for you and your GP. Self-monitoring will not eliminate risks but it can reduce them. 

Research has shown there are key risk factors that can affect your seizure control and safety – and that these change over time. EpSMon provides key information for you and your clinician– helping you better understand your condition and when you need to take positive action to live more safely.
