NFB Seniors Division -third Instructional Conference call of 2021 - All are
welcome

Time: 4:00 PM ET

Topic: Non-24 Sleep Wake Disorder; our special presenter is- Jennifer Lyman,
R.N., B.S.

Nurse Educator-Midwest, Vanda Pharmaceuticals, Inc. Here is what she wrote
as an intro: 

Many of you may have heard of Non-24 Sleep Wake Disorder (also called
Non-24). It's a serious & rare circadian rhythm disorder and people living
with Non-24 experience sleep struggles and excessive daytime sleepiness
which can impair social and occupational functioning. It's often
misdiagnosed. Vanda Pharmaceutical has a specialized team of Registered
Nurse Educators who raise awareness of Non-24 through education and
community outreach at events and support groups for the visually impaired. 

You don't have to be totally blind to have Non-24, but if you are totally
blind, you are at a higher risk of developing it. Learn how to recognize the
symptoms, how to talk to your doctor or family & friends is what our Nurse
Educators and Health Educators do for those who feel they may need help.
