On Monday night I had the opportunity to spend a few hours at the Portland Sleep Lab working with Gerri. I have been there many times but never when the lab has been operating.
For those who have never been to the Portland District Hospital, where the sleep lab is based, the picture provided shows the wonderful view that can be seen from some rooms in the hospital. Not a bad place to spend a night!
Apart from the great views, the Portland Sleep lab is equipped with sophisticated technology. Operating the latest version of profusion (sleep study software package). Since January this year when the E-series from compumedics was installed the communication process between Hamilton and Portland sleep labs has been streamlined.
It's fantastic for Western Victoria to boast two high quality sleep laboratories operating within this region. Next on the agenda is a sleep laboratory in Dimboola to service our patients that come from the Wimmera.
More information about this in the coming weeks.....
