Historically, sleep has constituted a specific area for respiratory therapists. Sleep-related knowledge is unfortunately not covered in depth in university programs.
In order to reach the standards we require at La Clef du sommeil both in terms of quality of service and know how, each of our respiratory therapists undergo extensive training of more than 200 hours.
In 2014 we received an award which testifies to our commitment to your safety. Over the years La Clef du sommeil has received numerous awards.
However, we have revised our processes in order to offer unsurpassed quality of services.
As a result La Clef du Somme has recently obtained the highest recognition granted by Accreditation Canada. Our expertise has been given an HONORABLE MENTION. This high-level recognition is only awarded to organizations that meet more than 95% of requirements.
With over a decade of experience and our continuous training in the field of sleep disorders, we can assure you that you are in good hands.
