At the Faith Regional Sleep Disorder Center patients begin with a sleep consultation to discuss his/her sleeping habits, lifestyle & health history. If a sleep study is recommended, he/she will stay overnight in one of the specially designed rooms, much like a room found in one’s own home, & will have devices attached to record sleeping patterns, breathing oxygen levels, brain waves, heartbeat, breathing effort & other parameters to detect problems during sleep. After the data is analyzed, the patient is called in for follow-up care & treatment. Faith Regional has been providing comprehensive sleep disorder services to the region since 1993. Sleep studies can usually be scheduled within 2 to 3 weeks & individuals don’t need a physician’s order to schedule a consultation.
