Sleepstation : What is it?  

Sleepstation is a digital sleep clinic offering evidence based and clinically validated sleep therapy and a proven solution for chronic insomnia. The team of coaches, doctors and sleep experts help to identify underlying causes and provide personal support needed to improve sleep.  

Individuals experience insomnia if they regularly:

• Find it hard to get to sleep
• Wake during the night and find it difficult to get back to sleep  
• Awaken early and can't return to sleep
• Remain tired after waking up
• Suffer from daytime sleepiness and irritability
• Encounter daytime concentration challenges due to sleepiness

A sleep team guides individuals through a personally tailored and expertly supported programme of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy for insomnia (CBTi) which shows significant improvements in mental and physical health for both primary and co-morbid insomnia.

Sleepstation's online CBTi program serves as an accessible alternative to sleep clinics and medication. It effectively addresses all forms of insomnia, and a brief questionnaire helps identify potential beneficiaries.

Who can access this and where does Joy come in?

Clinicians who use the Joy GP App in the appropriate areas will benefit from an integrated pathway for referring patients to Sleepstation . Instead of the current practice of downloading and manually completing referral forms, GPs will have access to the built in referral form through EMIS or SystmOne.  

What is the impact?  

The impact of Sleepstation has been remarkable, with the majority of individuals experiencing improved sleep after just four sessions. Take Jane, a 62-year-old from Leeds, who had suffered from insomnia for over six years. Her journey with Sleepstation  has been incredibly rewarding, she notes:

“It has changed my life. I now look forward to getting into bed because I know I will sleep. Having sleeping tools has taken away my anxiety. I enjoy living now because the confusing lack-of-sleep fog has been lifted. I laugh more.”

What this means to us at Joy:

"At Joy, we're thrilled to partner with Sleepstation to simplify referrals for clinicians using this pathway. It’s about transforming lives through better sleep and we're proud to be part of that journey.”

Thoughts from Sleepstation on the partnership with Joy:

"We're so pleased to be partnering with JOY. By streamlining the referral process for clinicians, and increasing awareness to our service, we look forward to supporting more users towards a better night's sleep."  

The Joy GP App will streamline insomnia referrals to Sleepstation, transforming lives through better sleep.
