A remote electroencephalogram technician, or remote EEG tech, performs EEG tests in the home of a patient rather than in a hospital or clinic setting. The EEG machine measures brain activity, and physicians use this device for diagnosing conditions such as a brain tumor, stroke, brain trauma, or sleep disorders. Your responsibilities as a remote EEG operator involve traveling to the patient’s location and performing equipment setup. Your duties include attaching electrodes to the patient’s head and monitoring readings for approximately 60 minutes. You may take video of the patient and ask them to perform specific movements during the procedure.
