Medical Support
Medical support pathways
How we plan to help people reach assessment, diagnosis and ongoing care.
What we can and cannot promise
TEA does not provide treatment, tests or funding directly at this stage. We do not promise free treatment, EEG tests or financial support that has not been secured. As partnerships and funding are confirmed, we will publish the details, eligibility and how to apply on this page.
The pathway we are working towards
-
Assessment
Guiding people with seizures or unexplained symptoms to a health centre, clinic or the county referral hospital for a clinical assessment.
-
Diagnosis
Working with partners towards better access to specialist review and diagnostic tests such as EEG, including possible support with costs and travel where funding allows.
-
Ongoing care
Supporting people to keep clinic appointments and take medicines as prescribed — including free reminders — alongside peer and family support.
Intended eligibility (once programmes open)
When support programmes open, we expect to prioritise:
- Children and young people with seizures or diagnosed epilepsy in Trans-Nzoia County.
- Families facing financial hardship, including those without health insurance cover.
- People referred by a health worker, community health promoter or school.
How to apply
Applications are not open yet. If you would like to be told when they open, contact us and choose “Asking for support”.
