Case Study:

Mr. Lui arranged to take his first grade class on a field trip to a nearby nature park after they had spent several weeks learning about small mammals living in the wild.

The day was warm and sunny, and the children were bubbling with excitement as they completed a short hike around the beaver ponds.

As they headed back to the picnic shelter for lunch, one of the children, who ran ahead of the group, let out a sudden shriek and fell to the ground.

The teacher quickly ran to the child and observed that she was unconscious and her arms and legs were jerking violently.

Mr. Lui sent one of the other children to get the park ranger, calmed the rest of the children down, and then used his cell phone to call 911 for emergency medical assistance.

Within minutes, the seizure ended and the child regained consciousness. When the paramedics arrived, they checked the child over carefully and were satisfied that she required no additional treatment at the time.

Mr. Lui contacted the child's family and learned that her doctor had recently prescribed a new seizure medication that he was not aware of.
