Job description

Simply put, we believe in the power of sleep.

As sleep health champions, we want more and more people to wake up to a brighter day every day. And, we are making daily progress, as we help more organizations see sleep as transformational and a foundational pillar of health. We strive to give more access to the technology and care they need to lead fuller lives.

Our depth of knowledge in the science of sleep gives us a unique perspective on sleep as a critical intervention strategy in chronic disease. We help people see the right problem and the right way forward, elevating not just our solutions but also advancing the field of sleep medicine.

Our vision is to work with our partners — employers, health systems, health plans, government agencies, provider groups and others committed to transforming care — to expand sleep health care to where it is needed, so it can take its rightful place in the healthcare ecosystem.

• Ensure assigned research studies (e.g. Nox-related testing initiatives, and special clinical projects) are executed accurately and completed according to protocols.
• Maintain high attention to detail regarding the “tech shift report,” patient charts, provider orders, and study documentation. Perform sleep study scoring as needed, particularly to support titrations, split protocols or next-day MSLT testing decisions.
• Maintain high standards of patient care, service and comfort, ensuring a positive onsite patient experience in the sleep lab.
• Conduct regular facility assessments to ensure patient rooms, control room, staff common areas and equipment are clean, fully functional, and in good condition. Promptly report maintenance issues or equipment damage.
• Oversee overnight inventory usage, including all testing related supplies, PAP titration mask availability and linen usage.
• Assist lab management with maintaining compliance for AASM accreditation, quality assurance metrics, and preparation for site inspections.

• Demonstrated potential or background in peer leadership, coaching, or clinical instruction.
• Strong communication and interpersonal skills, proficiency in sleep study equipment, and knowledge of sleep disorders and treatments; must also be computer literate with excellent knowledge of sleep testing software, EHR experience and communication tools (e.g. Gmail, Slack etc.)
