Webease Online Health Program | Centers For Disease Control And Prevention

WebEase (Web Epilepsy, Awareness, Support and Education) is an interactive, on-line self-management program for people with epilepsy. The goal of WebEase is to support and foster the management of epilepsy by people with epilepsy. WebEase is different from other Epilepsy websites because it does not tell you what you should do. Rather, it guides you to think about what is important to you in managing your epilepsy through taking medications, managing stress and getting a good night’s sleep. WebEase encourages you to make decisions that are consistent with your own goals: - The program consists of three interactive modules—medication taking, stress and sleep management. Each module lets you read information, respond to questions, receive feedback, and watch and listen to testimonials. You also learn helpful strategies to improve your epilepsy self-management and set goals that are personalized to meet your specific needs and concerns. - WebEase also includes MyLog, an online personal journal you can use to track your seizures, medication, stress and sleep patterns and receive personalized feedback about how your medication taking, stress, and sleep may affect or improve your epilepsy.
