Welcome to the Irish Sleep Society
website...
 |
We are a Professional Society whose membership
consists of physicians, technicians and other
health care-professionals who specialise in the
treatment of sleep related disorders.
|
 |
The Irish Sleep Society (ISS)
(Gaelic translation, Cumann Codhladh na hÉireann) was
established with the aim of informing the public and
interested parties of the problems that can occur
during sleep and how these impact on health, public
safety and quality of life. |
 |
We hope and endeavour to improve
education and awareness of sleep disorders in
Ireland.
|
 |
The Irish Sleep Society was founded
on the 24th September 2005 following a meeting of
healthcare professionals who specialise in disorders
of sleep. |
 |
The ISS AGM takes place in February
of each year.
 |
ISS have sections in the
website which will allow people to
expand their knowledge of sleep and
disorders, such as:
 |
An education
section which will discuss
different aspects of sleep and
the associated disorders on an
ongoing basis. |
 |
A public forum is
under consideration, which will
enable participants to provide
guidance to peers. |
 |
a dedicated
section on the Board of
Registered Polysomnographic
Technicians (BRPT) exam, will
provide information and advice
to professionals who are
thinking of pursuing further
qualifications in the field of
sleep.
