Job Description

We’re looking for a skilled Neurodiagnostic Technologist to join our dynamic Neurodiagnostic Lab team! You’ll perform essential neurodiagnostic tests that help physicians uncover what’s happening beneath the surface — from EEGs and EMGs to video monitoring and evoked potential studies.

Working under the direction of the Director of the Neurodiagnostic Lab, you’ll not only deliver high-quality patient testing but also play a key role in mentoring new staff and guiding students through hands-on clinical learning.

What You’ll Do

• Prepare and explain procedures to patients, ensuring comfort and understanding

• Perform and interpret a variety of neurodiagnostic tests, including standard and complex EEGs, evoked potentials, video monitoring, and nerve conduction studies (EMG)

• Set up and adjust EEG equipment, filters, and sensitivity settings for accurate readings — even during challenging or unusual cases like electro-cerebral silence

• Conduct auditory, visual, and somatosensory studies to assess brain-stem function

• Use video monitoring to capture and analyze seizure activity, distinguishing between different seizure types

• Apply electrodes precisely — even in complex cases involving skull defects, shunts, or brain swelling — and use collodion application when necessary

• Perform EMG testing by stimulating and recording electrical activity in peripheral nerves, calculating nerve conduction velocity, and analyzing results

• Provide training and guidance to new staff and student interns, ensuring top-quality patient care and accurate documentation

• Calibrate, clean, and maintain highly sensitive equipment

• Complete all patient testing documentation, including charge slips, accurately and on time

• Support quality improvement, patient safety, and cultural diversity initiatives

• Deliver care that meets each patient’s physical, emotional, and educational needs — always with a courteous and professional attitude

• Stay current on compliance requirements, regulations, and departmental standards, and participate in ongoing compliance activities

What You Bring (Minimum Requirements)

• High school diploma or equivalent

• Completion of an AMA-accredited EEG/EMG program or equivalent years of experience in EEG, EMG, or EP

• Certification as a Registered EEG Technologist plus one (1) additional END modality

• Current BCLS certification (must be maintained for continued employment)

• Excellent verbal and written communication skills

• Ability to lead and mentor small groups with confidence and positivity
