Tired of Being Tired? Regional Medical Center Recognizes May as Better Sleep Month

May 4, 2026 in News, Sleep Study

Regional Medical Center (RMC) in Manchester, Iowa is joining healthcare providers nationwide to recognize Better Sleep Month during the month of May. This annual awareness campaign is a vital reminder that quality sleep is a pillar of health. 

Untreated sleep disorders can significantly impact mood, memory, immunity and long-term physical health. To support the community, RMC provides both in-lab Polysomnograms and convenient Home Sleep Studies through their partnership with the Eastern Iowa Sleep Center. 

“A good night’s sleep may be closer than you think,” says Lois Kruse, RMC Respiratory Manager.“ By providing a non-clinical, private suite experience, we ensure that the diagnostic process is stress free and painless for our patients.” 

RMC’s sleep lab features private, quiet suites designed with a “home like” feel, including queen-sized beds and modern amenities. To ensure minimal disruption to daily routines, most in-lab studies conclude by 5AM, allowing patients to get back to their daily activities. 

While May serves as a time for awareness, RMC urges those who are struggling with chronic fatigue or sleep concerns to speak with their primary healthcare provider about a referral to the RMC Sleep Lab.
