Sleep is essential for our health & wellbeing. It helps with our recovery, information processing and emotional regulation.
It is fundamental to every aspect of our physical and mental health, allowing us to feel refreshed, alert, and function at our best. Not getting enough sleep or rest can have significant consequences for us.
Working in a healthcare environment can be physically, mentally and emotionally challenging. Stressful days, long shifts without enough breaks, and night shifts that go against the body clock can often lead to sleep deprivation and fatigue.
At Here for You we run a Sleeping Well workshop, covering the background & importance to sleep as well as practical tips to improve your sleep. You can find out more information, as well as how to sign up to this workshop here.
