The Facility
For in-lab sleep testing, we offer a comfortable, home-like setting where technologists make you feel at ease. While you sleep, our caring staff use state-of-the-art equipment to monitor your heart rate, breathing patterns, brainwave activity and other key indicators. These procedures are safe and totally non-invasive.
The facility’s private bedrooms are architecturally soundproof and have individual temperature controls for comfort. Your room is furnished with a bathroom and shower, a flat-screen TV, wireless internet access, comfortable beds, reclining lift chairs and eco-friendly linens. Complimentary breakfast is offered.
The Sleep Disorder Facility accommodates adult and pediatric patients ages 14 and up. Patients under 18 must be accompanied by a parent or guardian.
National average for patients' adherence to positive airway pressure therapy after 1 year is 40-60%. Our sleep center consistently runs 15% higher than the national average. This is due to the expert attention, follow-up and coaching that patients receive from physicians and staff once they are placed on therapy.
Whether you’ve been using sleep therapy for many years or just looking for assistance with your sleep issues, our compassionate staff is here to help you with your healthcare needs.
