Polysomnographic Technologist Jobs in Virginia

A Polysomnographic Technologist, also known as a Sleep Tech, plays a crucial role in the med tech industry, primarily in diagnosing and treating sleep disorders. They conduct sleep studies, monitor patients overnight, analyze data, and work in close collaboration with physicians to devise suitable treatment plans. They use advanced equipment to record and interpret physiological data such as brain waves, eye movement, heart rate, and more. A core part of their job includes educating patients about sleep disorders and their respective treatment plans.

To be efficient in their role, a Polysomnographic Technologist should possess strong technical skills, attention to detail, excellent communication abilities, and the capacity to work independently during night shifts. Essential certifications include the Registered Polysomnographic Technologist (RPSGT) Certification and the Board of Registered Polysomnographic Technologists (BRPT) credential. Prior to becoming a Polysomnographic Technologist, an individual might have experience as a Medical Assistant, a Registered Nurse, or a Respiratory Therapist, as these roles provide a solid foundation of medical knowledge and patient care skills.
