Sleep Disorders - Diagnosis, Management and Referral

May 7, 2010
7.5 Contact Hours

If you are a Nurse Practitioner perplexed about:

1. how to take a sleep history
2. or what to do when your patient complains about difficulty falling asleep, difficulty maintaining sleep, or awakening too early in the morning  (and your only answer is a hypnotic prescription)
3. or you are not sure when to refer on for polysomnographic testing
4. or what childhood nocturnal behaviors require treatment
5. or what to do when a college student describes his usual bedtime is at 2 am and he is unable to make any of his morning classes

Come and learn about sleep disorders with Dr. Leslie-Faith Morritt Taub, an Adult and Gerontologic Nurse Practitioner certified in behavioral sleep medicine, and Dr. Barbara Caldwell, a Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner and sleep researcher.
