EMG Technologistsare responsible forperforming nerve conduction studies to evaluate the function of patients’ nerves and muscles. Duties include placing surface electrodes to deliver mild electrical impulses and measuring the resulting nerve and muscle responses. The role may also involve inserting fine needles to record andmonitorcommunication between nerves and muscles, providing critical diagnostic information to support patient care. You will work closely with Neuro-Muscular Neurologists, Spine Physicians, and occasionally Registered Nurses (RNs) to support patient care.You will have the opportunity to collaborate regularly with fellow EMG Technicians to ensureaccuratetesting, support an efficient workflow, and contribute to the delivery of high-quality patient care.While prior healthcare experienceisn’trequired, a strong understanding of anatomy, the ability to multi-task, and a passion for helping patients are essential.
