The Non-Registered EMG Technologistis responsible for performing 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. This role may also involve inserting fine needles to record and monitor communication 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 ensure accurate testing, support an efficient workflow, and contribute to the delivery of high-quality patient care. While prior healthcare experience isn’t required, a strong understanding of anatomy, the ability to multi-task, and a passion for helping patients are essential.
