Members Benefits

The CWRU community is a diverse population of driven and curious students with many different backgrounds and aspirations. The Sleep Medicine and Sleep Health field is not limited to just doctors, but is composed of Physician Assistants, Nurse Practitioners, Nurses, and Sleep Technologists all working in collaboration with Cardiologists, Pulmonologists, Dentists, Psychologists, Dieticians, Therapists, and many other professionals to help provide all with equal access to a good night’s sleep. Sleep is a basic, yet complicated, human need that not only affects one’s mood, but also has a significant impact on one’s development, growth, mental capacity, cognitive functions, immune support, cardiologic health, and much much more. This emerging field in medicine must be better understood to more holistically and thoroughly treat patients.
