Description
We could all use more sleep and better sleep. Getting in a quality night's rest is critical to improving our productivity and helps us prevent slip-ups.According to ANA’s Health Risk Appraisal, nurses sleep an average of 7 hours per night, which is on the low end of the recommended daily 7 – 9 hours that The National Sleep Foundation recommends. And 12 percent of the Health Risk Appraisal respondents reported that they had nodded off while driving in the past month.
According to Cleveland Clinic, not getting enough sleep can lead to many health issues including depression and high blood pressure, as well as increase a person’s risk of making errors on the job. Meanwhile, getting plenty of shut-eye can help nurses feel calmer, happier, and have a better quality of life.
During this 5-day challenge, we’ll provide simple tips and strategies from ANA’s resources on healthy sleep that will help you get a better night’s rest. For additional resources, see ANA’s 2014 position statement: Addressing Nurse Fatigue to Promote Safety and Health.
