At the Sleep Center, an overnight stay with us is much like staying in a fine hotel. As you arrive, you will settle into your quiet, tastefully-decorated private room with pillow-top mattress, plush bedding, private bath, and remote controlled color cable TV and DVD player. When you wake the next morning, fresh coffee, juice and a continental breakfast is provided. We are certain our team of professionals will put you at ease for a comfortable stay.
Once you arrive at the Sleep Center, a qualified member of our staff will explain all the procedures to you. Each evaluation consists of placing small electrodes on the surface of your head, face and legs for recording of sleep patterns. Airflow, heart rate, muscle activity, brain waves, and blood oxygen levels are monitored. Patients are routinely videotaped to correlate body movements with physiological changes.
The Sleep Center offers convenient, flexible scheduling, and the entire study is usually covered by Medicare and most insurance companies. If requested, the Sleep Center also has overnight accommodations for a family member near the patient’s room.
Because we recognize there is a difference between sleeping and sleeping well, at Good Shepherd - Marshall’s Sleep Center we want to make restful sleep a reality for you. Contact the Sleep Center at (903) 927-6554 or email your questions SleepWell@gsmcmarshall.org. |
