NAME/DOB:
GIVE ME A REASSURING NONVERBAL SIGNAL
THAT I KNOW MEANS, "I'M HERE. YOU ARE GOING TO
BE OKAY."
REMIND ME TO USE A COPING SKILL TO REGULATE
MY NERVOUS SYSTEM.
REMAIN CALM.
SPEAK POSITIVELY ABOUT ME OR
BETTER YET, NOT AT ALL. I CAN HEAR
YOU AND ATTENTION MAKES IT WORSE.
HELP ME SAFELY TO
THE GROUND.
COVER HARD SURFACES
NEAR ME.
SAY “YOU ARE HAVING AN FND
EPISODE. YOU ARE SAFE. YOU HAVE
THE TOOLS TO GET THROUGH IT. I AM
HERE WHEN YOU ARE READY.”THEN
GIVE ME PRIVACY AND SPACE.
DO NOT REMOVE ME FROM SCHOOL.
DO NOT BEHAVE FRANTICALLY.
DO NOT TIME THE EPISODES. UNLIKE EPILEPSY, THE CARE
DOES NOT CHANGE AFTER 5 MINUTES.
DO NOT CALL AN AMBULANCE UNLESS INJURED.
(PLEASE CHECK BASED ON INDIVIDUAL NEED.)
WHAT TO DO DURING
FOR ME, FND LOOKS LIKE:
I, _______________________________, HAVE BEEN DIAGNOSED WITH FUNCTIONAL NEUROLOGICAL DISORDER, BY MY
HEALTH CARE PROVIDER. SYMPTOMS CAN HAPPEN THROUGHOUT THE DAY OR IN EPISODES. EPISODES
ARE MORE LIKELY TO OCCUR WITH NERVOUS SYSTEM OVERWHELM, **ARE NOT MEDICAL
EMERGENCIES** AND CAN GET BETTER WHEN RESPONDED TO CORRECTLY.
MY WARNING SIGNS
FND RESPONSE PLAN
WHAT TO DO AFTER
REINVOLVE ME/RETURN ME TO CLASS.
PRAISE ME ONE-ON-ONE FOR COPING THROUGH MY
SYMPTOMS.
PLEASE WAIT UNTIL THE END OF THE DAY TO CONTACT
MY GUARDIAN USING THEIR PREFERRED METHOD.
