That’s right- HOBSCOTCH NOT hopscotch, and you don’t need a sidewalk and chalk to play it.
The Epilepsy Foundation of Virginia (EFVA) has been looking out for you, and applied and got funding for a grant for HOBSCOTCH, a program that the NIH evaluated and said:
“The HOBSCOTCH program significantly improved quality of life and appeared to be an effective intervention to address cognitive dysfunction in adults with epilepsy.”
Seizures try to steal- Hobscotch gives it back. Hobscotch stands for Home Based Self-Management and Cognitive training Changing Lives. You are in control and your participation and your solutions are supported and guided by a trained coach.
What will you get:
- Skills to help improve your memory
- Ideas to help you compensate when your brain does not want to cooperate
- Activities that are fun, calming, and helpful
- Problem solving strategies
- A trained coach to help you along the way
