Supplies

After your sleep study, you'll be contacted with the results and, if necessary, get scheduled for a fitting and supply appointment.

During this appointment, our certified respiratory therapist will perform your iniitial mask fitting and show you how to adjust it if necessary. You'll also review how to correctly operate your device and go over any questions you might have.

The device you receive, as well as any corresponding supplies will be determined by your insurance provider. It can often be daunting trying to make sense of it all, but that's where we step in to make sure you're getting everything you need!

Types of Supplies

Your sleep equipment comes with a variety of pieces and parts. We can help you coordinate with your DME provider to keep these on hand so you never have to worry about running out!

Masks

Your mask is one of the primary components of your CPAP machine. With use, it will get degraded and dirty, so it's a good idea to keep a few extra on hand to swap them out when it's time for a cleaning or replacement.

Tubing

Just like your mask, the tubing for your machine are vital to its successful operation. By keeping them clean and intact, you can prevent leakage and ensure a healthly night's sleep!

Cleaning Supplies

While it's generally okay to clean your masks and hoses in the sink with warm, soapy water; it's easier and more effective to utilize hoses and sterilization devices too!
