The Comprehensive Epilepsy Center features a 4-bed inpatient Epilepsy Monitoring Unit at Sinai Hospital that is part of a 36-bed dedicated neuroscience unit. In the Epilepsy Monitoring Unit, doctors can observe and record the brain waves of patients who are experiencing seizures or seizure-like behaviors in a comfortable, relaxed setting. Patients stay in private rooms that are equipped with minimally intrusive medical and video-monitoring equipment. By observing patients’ episodes and pinpointing the sources of their seizures, doctors can find better ways to treat those patients who may not be responding to medical therapies.

They also provide psychosocial assessments, which measure how patients relate and interact with other people.
