Brief Summary

The goal of this observationnal study is to identify the informative and educational needs of epilepsy patients to avoid interrupting the therapeutic pathway. The main question it aims to answer are :

• Identify the patient's expectations of a nurse specializing in epilepsy in the areas of information, predictive elements of good care and adaptation to their state of health
• Identify under-addressed or misunderstood themes
• Identify patient resources and interventions already in place
• Ensuring better continuity of care
• Improve the knowledge of patients and their relatives about the management of their pathology After a consultation with the neurologist (as part of their usual follow-up), the participants will be referred to a nurse for a semi-directive, individual interview, lasting 30 minutes and composed of open and closed questions. The announcement of the diagnosis, the quality of life or the factors contributing to the difficulties and their repercussions on a daily basis will be discussed during the interview.
