Good sleep is pivotal to overall health. However, about 15% of men and 5% of women in America have obstructive sleep apnea, and between 10% and 15% of adults have chronic insomnia. If you are a Veteran dealing with the effects of poor sleep, talk to your VA care team and consider using VA’s virtual care sleep resources to help improve your sleep quality:
- Path to Better Sleep (online training modules)
- CBT-i Coach (downloadable app)
- Insomnia Coach (downloadable app)
- Annie for Veterans (text messaging service – CPAP Reminder subscription and Sleep Diary subscription)
- Mindfulness Coach (downloadable app)
The Office of Connected Care recently shared an article with more information about these resources.
