About Synthesys Brain Health & The Role
At Synthesys Brain Health, we provide remote continuous EEG monitoring services to hospitals and healthcare facilities across the country. Our team of experienced EEG technologists works closely with neurologists, epileptologists, and bedside clinical teams to support the care of patients requiring continuous monitoring.
We are seeking a Remote Continuous Monitoring Technologist (CM Tech) to join our team for Weekend and/or Weekend Overnight shifts. The role involves real-time EEG monitoring, maintaining recording quality, troubleshooting equipment issues, recognizing critical findings, and promptly escalating concerns to the appropriate physicians or clinical care teams. The ideal candidate is confident with ACNS terminology, comfortable working independently, and understands the importance of timely communication in a critical care environment.
Key Responsibilities
Real-Time Telemetry
- Continuous Surveillance: Independently review real-time EEG data across adult, pediatric, and neonatal populations to accurately identify wake/sleep stages, transients, baseline shifts, and acute electrographic abnormalities.
- Rapid Clinical Triage: Identify and immediately escalate critical findings (e.g., status epilepticus, non-convulsive seizures, periodic discharges, burst suppression) directly to care teams per established critical-value protocols.
- ACNS-Standard Documentation: Provide objective technical descriptions of EEG patterns and events using standardized ACNS terminology, within the technologist's scope of practice.
- Patient & Recording Quality: Identify and communicate electrode concerns and other technical problems to facility staff as appropriate.
- Communication & Handoffs: Maintain accurate patient documentation, timely communication, and thorough shift handoffs to ensure continuity of monitoring and patient care.
What We Offer
- 100% Work-From-Home: Provide continuous EEG monitoring from your dedicated workspace with equipment provided.
- Shift Differential: Additional pay of +$2.00/hour for evening shifts (4:00 PM - 12:00 AM) and +$3.00/hour for overnight shifts (12:00 AM - 8:00 AM).
- Clinical Experience: Work with adult, pediatric, and neonatal patients across a variety of critical care settings.
- Professional Development: Gain experience with multiple EEG platforms and opportunities to pursue advanced credentials, including CLTM.
- Supportive Clinical Team: Work alongside experienced technologists, clinical leadership, and Reading Physicians who value the role of the EEG technologist.
Required
- Credentialing: Active registration as a Registered EEG Technologist (R. EEG T.) in good standing through ABRET.
- Experience: Minimum of 3 years of hands-on clinical EEG experience, specifically in Long-Term Monitoring (LTM) or Epilepsy Monitoring Units (EMU).
- Diagnostic Competence: Demonstrated proficiency in differentiating physiological from non-physiological artifacts and identifying normal and abnormal patterns across neonatal, pediatric, and adult populations.
- Certifications: Current BLS/CPR certification and willingness to meet hospital credentialing and immunization requirements (e.g., TB, MMR).
- Technical Proficiency: Comfortable navigating multi-screen monitoring setups, remote desktop software, and secure clinical communication tools.
Preferred
- Certification in Long-Term Monitoring (CLTM) through ABRET.
- Graduate of a CAAHEP-accredited Neurodiagnostic Technology (NDT) program, or an Associate's/Bachelor's degree in Allied Health or a related science.
- Prior technical experience across standard industry platforms (Cadwell, Natus, Nihon Kohden, Lifelines).
Remote Work Requirements
- A private work environment that maintains patient confidentiality and HIPAA compliance.
- Reliable, high-speed hardwired internet.
- Strong communication skills and consistent responsiveness via approved phone, text, and clinical team platforms during scheduled shifts.
