Sleep Clinic - Edition 1 - 2020

Sleep problems during the school years have been associated with negative outcomes in many domains, including poorer school performance, difficulties with attention, impulse control, behaviour regulation, cognitive functioning and emotional difficulties.

The Child & Adolescent Sleep Clinic at Flinders University provides assessment and treatment for common sleep problems in childhood and adolescence (including infants from six months of age). We have appointments available immediately, allowing families to address their child’s sleep difficulties at the start of the new school year. After obtaining a GP referral, families pay a once-off gap of $300 (reduced for health care card holders), with no further out-of-pocket costs for subsequent appointments.
