Neurodiagnostic Technology, AAS
This program prepares the students as an entry level neurodiagnostic technologist. In the classroom setting the students will explore anatomy, physiology, and the pathophysiology of neuroscience, legal and ethical concepts of healthcare, safe and effective care environment, and professional standards of practice in preparation for their clinical experience and career.
Throughout the program in a patient-centered care setting the students collaborate as a member of the health care team, integrate latest research into practice, apply a variety of methods to communicate effectively, utilize critical thinking skills to ensure safe environment for patients, evaluate neurodiagnostic tests, and practice within the ethical and legal realm of the neurodiagnostic profession.
This is a selective admissions program with limited enrollment. Prospective students are encouraged to visit the program website or contact JCCC program personnel for additional information and application materials at 913-469-2583 or rc-ndt@jccc.edu.
Students must “pass” all clinical courses and maintain a grade of “C” or higher in all non-clinical courses to remain in the program.
