Clinicians receive little exposure to sleep medicine in medical training and often have limited knowledge of sleep disorders. Understanding how to diagnose and treat sleep disorders can allow clinicians to improve a patient’s quality of life and overall health. This course is tailored to clinicians who have an interest in Sleep Medicine. It allows those currently working in the field to learn the most up to date information on sleep disorders, while providing a multidisciplinary approach they can share it with their teams.
