The Importance of Fire Service Sleep Hygiene

This webinar took place on May 13, 2024.

How and when you sleep is just as important as eating and training. Join fellow firefighters and sleep professionals to learn how to improve your quality of sleep, douse fatigue before it explodes, and the impact of sleep deficiency on your body and ultimately, your work. Walk away with practical sleep practices that can help you get more rest at the station, so you can be alert and safe every day.
