The Impact of Sleep and Brain Health on the Mental Wellness of Medical Students
Have you ever been in a hospital or clinic and faced a bleary-eyed medical student, resident, or even a physician? Did you wonder how much sleep they'd had that week? Sleep, a fundamental necessity, is often disregarded, especially within medical education. As a current medical student, I've witnessed firsthand the prevalence of sleep deprivation among peers and professionals alike. The consequences extend beyond personal health, affecting patient care and contributing to the escalating burnout crisis. Despite the vital role sleep plays in physical and mental health, its significance remains grossly undervalued. This excerpt highlights the urgent need for a paradigm shift in medical education, emphasizing the critical importance of prioritizing healthy sleep habits for the well-being of both medical professionals and their patients.
