On the sub there is evidently a fair amount of you guys that transition from IR, cath lab, and OR/scrub tech roles to clinical specialist positions. Very little do I see success stories of those previously involved in neurodiagnostics being touted. Are you out there?
I currently hold a tech role (R.NCS.T. + CNCT) at an accredited clinical neurophysiology lab.
Well versed in EMG/NCS and on my way to becoming certified in other modalities (EEG, neuromonitoring). Furthermore, I have a B.S. in Neuroscience.
Soft skills department has not been skimped on either - I have developed really terrific relationships with the attendings in my department and have had various patients reach out to patient advocacy to compliment me on bedside manners.
Have any of you found credentials similar to these to be helpful in landing a more niche neuro-related role? I wouldn’t ask if I saw a little more representation on the sub. Thank you!
