NAEC is pleased to announce the launch of an online course to train Neurodiagnostic Assistants (NDAs) (often referred to as patient observers or monitor watchers) working within the EMU. The course is a collaboration between ASET: The Neurodiagnostic Society (ASET) and NAEC.  The course is provided at no cost to NAEC member centers.

NAEC was excited to work with ASET on the development of this module to provide  standardized education for those individuals serving as Neurodiagnostic Assistants in Level 3 and 4 epilepsy centers.  With this course NDAs can gain basic skills in clinical seizure recognition, patient safety and how to respond to patient emergencies in the EMU. NDAs will work in tandem with credentialed Neurodiagnostic Technologists (R. EEG T. or CLTM) as well as the full multi-disciplinary epilepsy center team.
