What is different about us are the nuances of how we do what we do. A great example is how we use the iPad for patient training and ongoing support. And we don’t just say we use an iPad – we also try to capture the subtleties of why. As NST President Eric Cohen says he learned during his work as an engineer with BMW, people like things that are tactile. An iPad allows NST patients to control the pacing of their CPAP training.
Educators have shown that people retain new information better when: (1) they’re able to proceed at their own pace; (2) they learn and retain better with visuals; (3) they feel they’re in control; (4) they’re engaged and feel special; and, (5) they can hold the teaching device in their own hands.
NST’s proprietary iPad app meets all these criteria and ensures that every patient receives a consistently high level of training. The end result: Better compliance and a better night’s sleep. And that’s what National Sleep Therapy is all about. Pleasant dreams!
