The Nursing Night Shift Council recently sought a solution to create a more sleep-friendly environment in patient hospital rooms. They addressed safety and environmental challenges related to poor sleep hygiene and the effect it has on patients. Clinical implications in patients who do not get enough rest during the healing process include disorientation, sluggishness, and physical instability. The white noise channel was developed to help patients improve their sleep hygiene.<\/p>\n
