We are looking for a skilled and detail-oriented Electroneurodiagnostic Technologist to join our healthcare team. In this role, you will be responsible for conducting a variety of neurodiagnostic tests that help physicians diagnose and treat neurological disorders. These tests include electroencephalograms (EEGs), evoked potentials (EPs), nerve conduction studies (NCS), and polysomnography (sleep studies). You will work closely with neurologists, neurosurgeons, and other healthcare professionals to ensure accurate and high-quality diagnostic results. As an Electroneurodiagnostic Technologist, you will prepare patients for procedures, explain the testing process, and ensure their comfort and safety throughout the examination. You will also be responsible for setting up and maintaining specialized equipment, monitoring patient responses, and recording data for physician interpretation. Attention to detail, strong communication skills, and a commitment to patient care are essential for success in this role. This position requires a thorough understanding of neuroanatomy, neurophysiology, and the principles of electrophysiological testing. You must be able to recognize and respond to abnormal test results and patient conditions, and maintain accurate records in compliance with healthcare regulations and standards. Certification through a recognized credentialing body such as ABRET (American Board of Registration of Electroencephalographic and Evoked Potential Technologists) is highly preferred. If you are passionate about neurological health and enjoy working in a fast-paced, patient-centered environment, we encourage you to apply for this rewarding opportunity.
