We all need to sleep and as a Technologist in healthcare i have for the past 10 years been doing sleep studies on patients. Its a common thing among all of us no matter the differences, and the fact is that we all need to sleep to recharge our bodies and minds.

In an effort to practice posting, since ive been a part of steem and hive for the past 4 years approximately, id like to do a little intro (about time), and talk about sleep.

I work for a hospital, and started this journey in sleep about 10 years ago, when i hardly knew anything about healthcare. Fortunately i did not need a lot of school to complete a program and become a Polysomnographic Technologist (sleep tech). Its been rewarding to help people with their sleep.

Mostly we run a kind of test that shows how well a person sleeps. We monitor breathing, EEG (brain activity), EMG (muscle activity), EKG (heart) and few other parameters.
