El Paso, TX.

In most cases, patients stay alone throughout the study in their own private bedroom.  The only exception to this rule are circumstances such as testing in a child, an elderly person requiring assistance, or any other patient who requires physical and/or emotional assistance.  In these cases, caretakers stay in the same bedroom, but sleep next to the patient in a separate bed.  There is no circumstance in which the patient sleeps in the same bed with another person.  The arrangements for a caretaker to stay with the patient must be made in advance of the night of the study.  We do not have sufficient space to accommodate persons who are nonessential to the evaluation.
