After this session, attendees should be able to:

  1. Differentiate the sleep patterns of students who do not prioritize sleep from those students struggling with insomnia.
  2. Discuss the pros and cons of starting pharmacologic therapy for insomnia.
  3. Describe the treatment effects of commonly used hypnotics.
  4. Describe the management of delayed sleep wake phase disorder.

Program Abstract:
More than half of all college students report feeling “tired, dragged out, or sleepy” during the day. This innovative program will address 2 types of sleep patterns. 1. Students that don’t prioritize sleep and consequently have poor sleep habits 2. Students with good sleep habits, but have difficulty with sleep. This program will demonstrate how to give personalized sleep recommendations that encourage improved sleep behaviors, enhance wellness, and when to consider pharmacologic treatment for sleep.
