Worried about your sleep? Getting better rest starts with completing the ResMed Online Sleep Assessment.
Once you get your results, seize a moment to congratulate yourself. You have taken an important step toward better understanding your sleep health.
What should you do next? If you think you might be at risk for a sleep disorder , speak with your doctor about your concerns.
Asking for help and seeking a diagnosis can be a daunting process, but we are here to guide you every step of the way and get you ready to meet with your doctor. We’ll provide advice on what to bring, how to prepare, and what questions to ask during your appointment.
Before talking to your doctor, it helps to understand your sleep problems and symptoms better.
Consider taking our Online Sleep Assessment , which can help build a risk profile based on your current sleep behaviours. The Online Sleep Assessment offers insights into potential sleep issues, including sleep apnea, insomnia, fragmented sleep, and snoring. Identifying these concerns is important as untreated sleep disorders can impact your daily energy, focus, and overall health.1
Use your results to guide you in explaining your sleep problems to your healthcare provider. By giving your doctor clear information about problems like interrupted sleep, they can better diagnose and treat the issue.
Preparing for your appointment can ensure you get the most out of the discussion with your doctor. Here are our recommended steps to take:
When discussing your sleep assessment results with your doctor, open communication is key. Here are some tips for a productive conversation:
If you don’t have a regular GP, telehealth companies like Doctors on Demand can connect you with an Australian-registered, sleep-trained GP who you can see you from the comfort of your home.
Taking the ResMed Online Sleep Assessment is a great first step toward improving your sleep and health. Early detection and intervention can pave the way to better sleep and improved quality of life. With preparation, you’ll feel more confident discussing your sleep concerns with your doctor and exploring solutions that work for you.
