Sleep HealthCenters has launched a nationwide network of accredited sleep centers focusing on sleep disorder care
. The SleepPartners network will include local sleep medicine centers as well as services on a national basis, such as corporate wellness and payer disease management programs.

The National Transportation Safety Board recently recommended that all transportation providers test their employees for sleep apnea. The SleepPartners network is equipped to design and implement sleep testing programs for these national organizations.

"Corporate Wellness Programs educate employees on the importance of sleep, screen employees for sleep disorders, diagnose those screened as high-risk and then provide treatment options and follow-up care," said Paul Valentine, CEO of Sleep HealthCenters. "The SleepPartners network members provide the flexibility and responsiveness critical to offering these services nationally."

In addition to accreditation, each SleepPartners center features the ability to provide a comprehensive sleep medicine program including evaluation, diagnostics, treatment and long-term management for all sleep disorders.

"The SleepPartners network allows our centers to be connected to other sleep centers in the country who share a unified approach to sleep medicine," said Joseph Ojile, M.D., medical director of the Clayton Sleep Institute in St. Louis. "This ensures consistent care and a high level of quality is maintained, whether a patient or employer is in Boston, St. Louis, or Phoenix."

The SleepPartners network currently includes close to 100 centers across the U.S. and is increasing to offer sleep medicine services in every major region in the country.
