DVLA Guidance for Drivers
As mentioned in our driving section, we worked with DVLA to simplify the guidance on the DVLA requirements if you have symptoms of, or have been diagnosed with, OSA or OSAS. More details can be found here.
CPC Module
We worked with the FTA to produce a free of charge CPC module on OSA. http://www.fta.co.uk/sleepapnoea
Four Week Wait
This campaign was launched in March 2015 and aims to encourage the NHS to introduce fast tracking of treatment for vocational drivers with OSAS. More details can be found here and you can download the campaign paper here.
“If the driver of the truck that killed my nephew had been diagnosed and referred for fast track treatment of OSA when he visited his GP to complain about being tired all the time, Toby would still be with us”.
How to Get Involved
We welcome support, particularly from healthcare professionals, politicians and Government officials and the logistics industry.
