Share your views about sleep apnoea care for Richmond

At the moment, there are two different NHS sleep apnoea treatment services commissioned by NHS South West London (NHS SWL).

In Richmond, some people receive their care from the Obstructive Sleep Apnoea (OSA) Service provided by a private provider the Sleeping Disorders Centre. Others along with residents in Croydon, Kingston, Merton, Sutton, and Wandsworth are seen by the service at St George’s University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust (St George’s).

NHS South West London is proposing to align NHS sleep apnoea care in Richmond to the rest of South West London. This would mean that in future Richmond residents would have the same options for sleep apnoea treatment as people in the other five boroughs. St George’s would become the sole provider commissioned in South West London, in addition to alternatives available under the NHS Choice Framework.

If you currently receive care for sleep apnoea from the Sleeping Disorders Centre, your care would transfer to St George’s in the future unless you make alternative arrangements.

 

If you receive sleep apnoea care from another healthcare provider, if this proposal goes ahead your care would not be affected.
