Fontana Pharmacy, in collaboration with ISD Health Solutions, has launched a vital new Sleep Health Care initiative aimed at tackling one of the most dangerous yet undiagnosed medical conditions globally: Sleep Apnea.
Fontana Pharmacy–ISD Health Alliance Tackles Sleep Apnea
With over one billion people affected worldwide and more than one million Jamaicans potentially at risk, this partnership seeks to bring clinical-grade sleep care directly to the public.
Sleep Apnea is a life-threatening condition where breathing repeatedly stops during sleep, causing oxygen levels to drop and placing severe stress on the heart and brain. It is strongly linked to hypertension, diabetes, stroke, erectile dysfunction, and fatigue-related motor vehicle accidents.
“We’ve seen the damage oxygen deprivation can cause. COVID taught the world how critical oxygen is to survival,” says Gregory Arneaud, Founder and Clinical Director of ISD Health Solutions. “Now imagine that same slow suffocation happening night after night, unnoticed. That’s what sleep apnea does.”
Most people do not receive a diagnosis until it is too late, most often after a heart attack, stroke, or car accident. This initiative moves care upstream, allowing Jamaicans to see the warning signs early.
“If you or someone you love snores loudly, wakes exhausted, or suffers from high blood pressure, this might be your warning,” Arneaud adds. “Because how you sleep is how you live.”
Through this initiative, customers can now access the Sleep O2 Ring, a medical-grade easy-to-use home monitoring device that measures overnight oxygen levels and heart rate to identify sleep-related breathing disorders.
The partnership ensures continuity of care. Every product includes a QR code that connects the user directly to ISD’s clinical team. This means each customer is supported by Dr. Terry Baker (Pulmonologist and Internist) and a team of U.S. Board Certified Sleep Physicians and Dentists.
To kick off this initiative, ISD Health Solutions will host an all-day activation event.
