In response to a number of posts of late it got me thinking about the ideal clinic and what is my ideal may not be everyone's. So here's some ideas (mostly already at my clinic) but wondered what others think and if I've missed anything. Which bits do you think are most important?
1. Regular reviews until established on treatment and then yearly reviews after with the nurse showing you the data and offering advice around any difficulties and refitting of new masks if necessary
2. A wide range of mask options with latest offerings from the major companies.
3. A range of machine +/- humidifiers to suit individual needs.
4. A telephone helpline for advice and to request replacement parts / filters/ masks etc. (And postage of said items)
5. An email address for support as in 4.
6. A weekly drop-in clinic to deal with difficulties (no appointment necessary)
7. A user support group meeting 2-3 times a year with the consultant or people like BLF or SATA sharing information
