Episode Samantha Bramich - Paediatric Sleep Technician
Sleep is a fundamental part of looking after ourselves. When we sleep well, we can improve our overall wellbeing, mood, and cognitive function.
In this episode, Dorian Broomhall gets to know Samantha Bramich, a Paediatric Sleep Technician at the Launceston General Hospital.
Sam shares fascinating insights into how little is known about sleep, despite it being such a significant part of our lives. She walks us through the structure of our sleep cycles, the benefits each stage provides, and how these cycles are influenced by our biological clock.
Sam also explains the role of a Paediatric Sleep Technician and the types of conditions that can be identified through a sleep study. She also discusses the limitations of smart watches and sleep trackers.
Sam shares some practical steps we can take throughout the day to set ourselves up for a good night’s rest, including for those who struggle to fall asleep.
