- Interpret the results of sleep tests and communicate the findings to patients in a clear and understandable manner.

3. Treatment Planning and Management:
- Develop personalized treatment plans for patients, incorporating lifestyle modifications, behavioral therapy, and medical interventions.
- Prescribe medications and durable medical equipment (e.g., CPAP machines) when necessary, and monitor their effectiveness over time.
- Collaborate with other healthcare professionals to ensure comprehensive care for patients with complex medical conditions.

4. Patient Education and Counseling:
- Educate patients about the importance of healthy sleep habits and the potential consequences of untreated sleep disorders.
- Provide counseling and support to patients and their families, addressing any concerns or questions related to their sleep health.

5. Documentation and Record-Keeping:

- Comply with all relevant legal and regulatory requirements regarding patient data privacy and security.

6. Continuous Learning and Professional Development:
- Stay updated with the latest developments in sleep medicine, including research findings, treatment modalities, and best practices.
- Attend conferences, webinars, and workshops to enhance knowledge and skills related to sleep medicine.

Requirements:

- Medical degree (MD or DO) from an accredited medical school.
- Board certification in Sleep Medicine or eligibility to become board-certified.
