This tool has been created to help people with rare and complex epilepsies to find contact points closest to them. To find out which hospital you should contact, answer the following three questions.
Do you live or work in one of the 27 European Member states?
As ERN EpiCARE is funded by the European Commission, unfortunately we only provide service to patients from the 27 European member states.
However, some of our hospitals offer private patient service for non-European nationals. Please see the following document for your information in case you would like to receive treatment privately.
Are you a patient or a parent/carer of a patient with unexplained or uncontrolled epilepsy?
Unfortunately, we are unable to receive referrals directly from patients. ERN EpiCARE receives referrals from clinicians only.
If you are an epilepsy patient yourself or a parent/carer of a patient with unexplained or uncontrolled epilepsy, please contact your doctor who can refer you or your child to us.
We need a referral letter from your doctor describing your/your child’s epilepsy type, cause of epilepsy, possible epilepsy syndrome, latest investigations (EEG, video-EEG, all brain imaging results, genetics).
Please see a template referral letter for your information.
If you need further information, please contact us via our website.
