Philips has launched the “World’s Sleepiest Website,” an online resource to help those who struggle with sleep get a better night’s rest.
Released in support of the World Association of Sleep Medicine’s annual World Sleep Day, the website (SendMeToSleep.com) features a variety of visual content, including videos and images to help restless sleepers and to serve as a resource for chronically sleep deprived individuals who may have an underlying sleep issue.
The campaign aims to drive awareness and education around sleep issues, and is the latest effort in the company’s continued dedication to enhance the lives of patients suffering from obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) or other serious sleep disorders.
“Sleep impacts everything we do, and it’s no secret that we’re not getting the recommended eight hours,” said Dr Teofilo Lee-Chiong, MD, chief medical liaison, Philips. “While it’s one thing to recognize lack of sleep as an issue, it’s another to take active steps to get a better night’s sleep. With this website, we hope to engage the average person in thinking about how sleep contributes to their overall health and wellbeing.”
