We're not talking about CPAP in the real world, we're talking about CPAP and SLeep Apnea as an employee of Crete.

I Am looking at attending a CC in Alabama that Crete hires from.I got a physical and all went good until he checked my BMI.The doc gave me a six month card and said after I had a sleep study done he would issue a two year or one year card. Sleep studies are very expensive I know Roehl has their own sleep study program and will help you finance it.Does Crete have a similar program?

I did their "Sleep Study" in New Kingstown last August. Of the 4 that went, only 1 came away needing the machine. (It was not me...even though I am 6' and 265#.) They do the testing at New Kingstown, Wilmer, Lincoln and Salt Lake City. Rumor has it that Salt Lake City has a very high percentage of testees who are found to have apnea, therefore having to buy the machine OR quit. There are some machines that they consider compatible, and do not require a new one to be purchased (but apparently not many). Just my take from what was said when I went thru it...

well i agree when i was tested i should of been allowed to go to the va to get my machine but in order to keep my job ihad to get their machine on the spot

They charge around $750 for the Cpap machine. The new ones have a modem so Crete will be monitoring your sleeping everyday you work for them reguardless if you are on or off duty.

100% true, they think they own you heart and soul when you work there. My 17 yo ran head on into a tree and they offered no gosh I am so sorry we will have to get you home's. Instead they said we will get you home if we can. When my father in law died I received no card, no call and no respect. That place sucks.
blairandgretchen Thanks this. -
I went through my physical at hire and because I was under 35 BMI and my neckline was less than 17 inches I did not have to go through the sleep lab and I received a one year physical.
