Little Company of Mary's Sleep Disorders Center is unique in that it is located on-site at the Hospital. Our goal is to help people who suffer from apnea, insomnia, and other sleep disorders obtain refreshing sleep. Sleep studies are performed in the comfort of a bedroom environment. All bedrooms are private with a personal bathroom and shower. Handicapped accessiblity is offered as well.
Prior to a sleep study, patients are schedule for a 45 minute evaluation by one of our physicians, Dr. Richard Kern, board certified in sleep medicine or Dr. Evan McLeod, both of whom are trained to evaluate and treat sleep disorders.
If the physician recommends a sleep study after the evaluation, patients are then scheduled for a sleep study, which usually begins one hour prior to their normal bedtime. They are monitored overnight for eight hours in the center for sleep stages, breathing patterns, heart patterns, muscular activity and oxygen levels.
Sleep evaluations and studies are covered by most insurance. Accessible scheduling and prompt review of reports results in speedy diagnosis and treatment of the problem.
