dc.description.abstractSeizure is a true neurological emergency. In the in a basic medical surgical floor in a hospital it is a low frequency high risk event. As a low frequency event nurses my not be familiar with how to manage an actively seizing patient. The existing literature shows that there was a gap in knowledge and experience regarding seizure and actively seizing patients. This gap leads to nurses feeling less confidence and being less effective when managing seizure patients. This DNP project developed a evidence-based training for bedside nurses to improve nurses feelings of self-efficacy, self-confidence, and knowledge regarding seizure and actively seizing patients. This training was delivered in a midsized urban hospital to registered nurses currently employed in a basic medical surgical floor setting. Nursing knowledge feelings of self-efficacy and self-confidence were all positively affected after this training. Assessment skills, continuing education practices, staff development, and nursing leadership should be further evaluated for future projecten_US
