What is Clinical Sleep Health Care™
Clinical Sleep Health Care™ is the healthcare discipline that establishes sleep health as part of inpatient care.
Healthcare establishes disciplines to ensure that patient needs are addressed through organized, coordinated, and consistent care. Each discipline brings specialized knowledge, defined responsibilities, and an organizational approach to meeting specific health needs.
Sleep health is essential to health.
Yet sleep health has not traditionally been established as a healthcare discipline within inpatient care. As a result, the way patients' sleep health needs are identified, coordinated, and addressed may vary across healthcare organizations.
Clinical Sleep Health Care™ establishes the organizational approach that integrates sleep health into patient care throughout hospitalization.
It is not a program.
It is not a department.
It is not an initiative.
It is a healthcare discipline.
As a healthcare discipline, Clinical Sleep Health Care™ provides the structure through which healthcare organizations can consistently identify, coordinate, and respond to patients' sleep health needs as part of inpatient care.
The discipline is built on a simple truth:
If sleep is health, then it should be part of healthcare.™
Understanding what Clinical Sleep Health Care™ is naturally leads to another question.
If this discipline exists, why was Clinical Sleep Health Consulting, LLC established?
