Tracey has a passion for helping people, for education and for service to her community. She has a deep affection for rural Saskatchewan and the people who live in or near the many small towns, villages and hamlets that define our beautiful province. Tracey completed her sleep technician training through the American Academy of Sleep Medicine in 2007 and continues her education on a regular basis, completing online modules, reading relevant medical journals, and taking classes through the University of Saskatchewan.

In her spare time, Tracey loves to spend time outdoors enjoying various activities like camping, hiking, kayaking, spending hours putting on as many miles as possible on her ski do, enjoying a backyard fire etc. She enjoys time with friends and family and is happy to cook and entertain for a large group. Some of the best days are when all her children and grandchildren are at home enjoying each other’s company, playing games, and laughing. Tracey loves to travel, see new places and appreciates the experiences of other cultures.

Growing up in Flin Flon, Barb knows the challenges of accessing medical care in rural areas. She is happy to be part of a clinic that offers everything the big cities offer and more when it comes to sleep apnea products and services. Barb enjoys being part of a team that works well together, has fun and makes coming to work not seem like work at all.

In 2008, after spending 18 years in southern Ontario, Barb and her husband decided to relocate back to the prairies to be closer to family.

Her husband’s family farm is near Dauphin and many happy times are spent there. Trips back to Flin Flon are made a few times a year to visit family, friends, and fishing.

Barb completed her polysomnography technician (PSGT) course in 2008 through the American Academy of Sleep Medicine (AASM). And worked as a sleep technician with Tracey from 2008 to 2012. Barb was happy to join Tracey in 2017 when Parkland CPAP was opened.

Leanne grew up on a dairy farm in rural Saskatchewan, so knows how busy harvest time can get. Therefore, she has knowledge of the need to have easy access to health care for rural Saskatchewan people. She has lived in Yorkton since 1993 and is married with two children.

She has completed courses in Quickbooks and Excel, along with many years of customer service.

Leanne joined the CPAP team in the summer of 2020 and enjoys working with people who are more like friends and family than co-workers.

Alyssa was born and raised in Weyburn Saskatchewan before moving away to do some travelling and has settled in Yorkton where she is happy to now call Parkland “home”! Growing up a part of the rural community, along with having many family members dispersed throughout rural Saskatchewan, Alyssa has seen firsthand the importance and need of having accessible healthcare within these communities.

Between house reno’s, entertaining her animals, or doing some sort of crafting, Alyssa loves to spend her spare time out in nature, whether it be mountain biking, camping, disc golfing, gardening, or just walking the dog, she is always happy to get some fresh air and movement!

Alyssa has been a part of the Parkland CPAP team since September of 2022, and is looking forward to the opportunity of bringing care to even more communities throughout the province.

Karen was born and raised in Saskatoon and relocated to Yorkton in April of 2021 with her partner and 3 children.  Karen has a passion for organization and customer service with over 10 years in retail. She eagerly joined the CPAP team in April of 2023.

As a mother of a child with high medical needs, Karen knows how difficult it can be where travel is required to attend appointments. She is excited to help fill the gaps of medical care in rural Saskatchewan communities.

After many years in retail and customer service, Karen was looking for a change in pace that combined both her customer service and organization skills as well as challenged her to learn new things. Finding Parkland CPAP Services felt like the perfect fit and after only a week, she knew it would be something that would be both challenging and rewarding and something she could see a future in.

Karen is a typical “soccer mom” with kids in multiple activities, and even coaches her 4-year old’s soccer team. Whatever spare time she may get is spent in the garden, watching reality TV, or thrift shopping.

You will see Karen at the front desk of our Yorkton office and hear her voice if you call. Karen is excited to help you with all your CPAP accessories and masks and to bring awareness of sleep disorders and support you in your sleep apnea journey.

Chester is a Havanese breed and our therapy dog in training. He was born May 27, 2019 and started working at Parkland CPAP Services at the end of August when he was only 3 months old. Chester has fur instead of hair so really does not shed. Originally the breed was intended for show dogs, and if let to grow, his fur would reach the floor. We like him fluffy, but we do not let it get too long because he loves to run and play and explore on his long walks.

Chester gets at least one but usually two long walks a day, he gets played with daily and bathed every Sunday and since he comes to work every day, he is never alone, so lives a pretty awesome life for a dog. He enjoys meeting new people and, if not napping, will likely greet you when you arrive at the office.

Chester also loves treats – A LOT – and we have his healthy treats here, so if you like dogs, we can give you some treats, and you can ask him to sit or lay down or shake a paw and he will; he will gladly sit nice if it means a treat. Chester’s favorite time of the day is lunch time, and he seems to know exactly when it is lunch time (and quitting time – this is when he gets a nice long walk in the park).
