Our service to you

During your test

We come to your home to set you up with the sleep equipment in the late afternoon. This will take approximately 30 minutes.

Once the equipment is secure, we leave you to continue to enjoy your evening. Please try to have your usual evening and bed routine and retire to bed at your normal time.

Understanding your sleep

Wake up at your usual time and carefully remove the equipment yourself. 

We will arrange for the equipment to be collected the next morning.

Your sleep study will be analysed and reported in-house by our Clinical Sleep Physiologists and reported by one of our Sleep & Respiratory Physicians.

  • “Great experience. Very professional, turned up on time and set up all the equipment. I would never have slept in a sleep study center so doing this at home with City Central was a much better option. Feedback and info provided afterwards was very informative. Highly recommend.”
