Sleep Medicine (Polysomnography) Technology

Polysomnographic technologists, or sleep technologists, embody a unique skillset and are valued, essential members in the healthcare field. They assist physicians specializing in sleep medicine with clinical assessments, physiological monitoring and testing, diagnostic and therapeutic tools, management, and treatment of sleep-related disorders in patients of all ages — from newborns to seniors. To begin preparing for a rewarding career in this specialized healthcare field, consider enrolling in our Polysomnographic Technology program.

This program includes parallel clinical training in various Phoenix hospitals and free-standing sleep centers — preparing you to enter a career as a polysomnographic technologist. Our expert instructors will teach you how to perform a polysomnographic study, including patient hookup, diagnostic evaluation of sleep disorders, technical evaluation for a physician, and patient cleanup. We’ll help you utilize your critical thinking and problem-solving skills in polysomnographic procedures, demonstrate ethical and professional standards, and so much more! Upon successful completion of the program, you will be prepared to sit for the Board of Registered Polysomnographic Technologists examination to become a Registered Polysomnographic Technologist (RPSGT).
