Why is it important to provide privacy post-seizure?

Providing privacy to a passenger post-seizure is essential for several reasons, primarily concerning the emotional and psychological well-being of the individual. Seizures can be a distressing experience, often leaving the person feeling vulnerable or disoriented. By ensuring their privacy, you create an environment that fosters comfort and security, allowing the passenger to regain composure without the added stress of onlookers or potential judgment from others.

Privacy also respects the dignity of the individual. It minimizes the likelihood of embarrassment from having others witness a highly personal medical event. This is particularly important in a public setting like an aircraft, where the sense of safety and respect can significantly impact recovery.

Making the passenger feel comfortable and secure can help alleviate anxiety they might experience following a seizure, contributing positively to their overall recovery and ability to return to their regular activities.
