If yes, you may want to attend Northern Essex Community College Professor John Murray\u2019s Thursday, April 17 presentation at the Haverhill (MA) Public Library titled \u201cHow to Get a Good Night\u2019s Sleep.\u201d Free and open to the public, the presentation will begin at 7 p.m. at the library, 99 Main St., Haverhill.<\/p>\n<p>Sleep issues affect all ages from babies who can\u2019t sleep through the night to teens who simply don\u2019t get enough sleep to elderly people who suffer from insomnia. While having a few sleepless nights can be frustrating, undiagnosed sleep issues can also threaten a person\u2019s health, leading to stroke, hypertension or heart failure.<\/p>\n<p>In this presentation, John Murray, coordinator of the Sleep Technology Program at Northern Essex, will provide a general overview of sleep issues.<\/p>\n<p>Murray is a registered respiratory therapist as well as a registered polysomnographic technologist. He earned an Associate of Science in Respiratory Therapy from Newbury College and a Bachelor of Science in Polysomnography from California College of Health Science.<\/p>\n<p>Before joining the Northern Essex faculty in 2007, he worked at the Maine Sleep Institute at Maine Medical Center, where he was the manager of the service. Prior to that, he was the director of Rehabilitation Services at Huggins Hospital in Wolfeboro N.H. where he was responsible for clinical operations in cardiopulmonary care, cardiac rehabilitation, physical and occupational therapy, speech pathology, and long term care patient activities.<\/p>\n<p>Northern Essex offers a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.necc.mass.edu\/academics\/courses-programs\/areas\/health\/sleep-technologist\/\">sleep technologist certificate<\/a> which prepares students for a career in sleep medicine. The program includes classroom study, laboratory practice, and clinical experiences. Most sleep technologists work in sleep labs, often associated with hospitals, helping to diagnose sleep disorders.<\/p>\n<p>This presentation is made possible through the Northern Essex Community College Speakers Bureau.
