The role will also help advancing the service, developing and overseeing clinical protocols, ensure regulatory and clinical compliance, and provide medical supervision for a growing team of nurses, junior doctors and sleep physiologists.

Job-plans include approximately 30% non-clinical time for continuing medical education, quality improvement and service development.

There is a range of home sleep apnoea testing and in-laboratory polysomnography including PAP titration, MSLT and MWT testing. There is also availability for daytime NIV acclimatisation and community based PAP trials. Using state-of-the-art digital technology, the WellSleep Centre offers a full range of clinical investigations while adapting to a variety of research-related procedures.

The link with the University of Otago, Wellington (UOW) allows the WellSleep Centre to undertake research while ensuring protocols are research-based and in line with the latest best-practice techniques.
