FORT MYERS, Fla. - Signature Sleep Services (dba Sleep960), in conjunction with CPAPCoach.com, has initiated a telehealth service solution for patients experiencing difficulties adapting to and living with sleep apnea. The program, “Adherence by Alliance,” is a three-part series of encounters using evidence-based practice, namely motivational interviewing, to overcome barriers and provide a patient-centered approach to care. CPAPCoach was founded by Robyn Woidtke, MSN, RN, RPSGT. “These types of coaching techniques can fill a gap in promoting CPAP adherence and good sleep habits,” she stated in a release. Through a HIPPA compliant website, clients select the best time and day for one-on-one and group live coaching sessions. The sessions are typically conducted using a live video chat.
