Free CPAP Clinic

We want to know how you are feeling. Are you satisfied with your CPAP or BiPAP therapy? When was the last time your CPAP or BiPAP unit was checked? Perhaps it’s time to replace your mask or other accessories.

Check-up

Our Therapists will check your pressure setting, discuss your responsiveness to therapy including the changes in your personal circumstances, and address specific needs.

Clean-up

Our Patient Coordinators will clean your CPAP/BiPAP, masks, hose, and humifiers, as well as make recommendations on which parts need replacement or upgrading.

Follow-up

Our team will be pleased to show you the various technological improvements that could improve your therapy.

These CPAP Clinics have proven to be helpful to our patients over the years. Please bring your CPAP or BiPAP unit, mask and headgear, humidifier and Smartcard.

Our next clinics are going to be held in September, exact dates to be announced soon.

CALL 604-432-9271 or 604-875-1440 TO REGISTER FOR OUR NEXT AVAILABLE CLINIC. LIMITED SPACE AVAILABLE.





Better Sleep Foundation

We have determined that some patients do not proceed with therapy for their sleep apnea simply because they can’t afford it. These patients often do not have extended health coverage through an employer, and they don’t have the financial means to purchase a CPAP and mask, regardless of the price. This gave us the idea of forming a not-for-profit society that would undertake community awareness programs to attract donations of new and used CPAP equipment, humidifiers and new masks, which could be provided at no charge to deserving patients.

The Better Sleep Foundation is now open to help these patients, and we would very much appreciate donations of equipment and/or financial contributions. The value of each donation will be assessed based on the condition of the equipment and our best estimate of current market values. Please note that due to health reasons, we do not provide used masks to patients. We clean, repair, and upgrade this equipment as required, and then provide it free of charge to patients on our waiting list, including full therapeutic support provided free of charge by Clinical Sleep Solutions Inc.

If you decide to upgrade to a new model, or if you no longer require CPAP equipment, please consider donating your old equipment. Donations made to the Better Sleep Foundation will be eligible for a tax receipt based on an assessed value.

Please contact us if you would like to learn more about donating used equipment.


Sleep Awareness Forum

Together with the Better Sleep Foundation, we have decided to host an ongoing free forum for sleep apnea patients to discuss with fellow patients their experiences and concerns.

We have joined the A.W.A.K.E. Network, as the first member in British Columbia .

A.W.A.K.E., an acronym for “Alert, Well, And Keeping Energetic”, was founded in 1986 to:

a) meet the needs of persons diagnosed with sleep apnea

b) provide information about the disorder, diagnosis, and treatment

c) provide support to those who want it

There are approximately 200 A.W.A.K.E. groups across the USA and Canada .

Our goal is to improve the quality of life for those affected by sleep apnea. We intend to attract members to our local chapter, and hold monthly meetings that will provide educational materials, an opportunity to discuss the personal topics associated with sleep apnea, and an opportunity to socialize with other members.

First on our list of topics for the next seminar is Nutrition and Exercise, and how to eat, sleep, and feel better every day. We invite you to join us at these ongoing free forums, which are designed to meet your needs.


Enjoy Your Trip by Renting our 1.5 lb CPAP

If you are a sleep apneic, you understand what it is like to go without your CPAP or BiPAP machine for even a few nights. The symptoms of sleep apnea come back, including snoring, dry mouth, headaches, and a reduction in energy ... none of which you want when you are trying to enjoy your holiday, or have a productive business trip.

Now there is good news for travelers. Puritan Bennett has introduced a compact CPAP that weighs only 1.5 lbs! And it is very quiet too.

Clinical Sleep is pleased to offer these exceptional units to our sleep apneic patients while they travel.

Please ask us about our CPAP Travel Programs. Masks and compact humidifiers are also available.
