Monitor watchers help to keep you safe by watching your video recording at all times. They alert a nurse if you start having prolonged or frequent seizures.

Our nurses are trained in how to monitor and evaluate your condition during a seizure. They work with the monitor watcher to assess your condition and keep you safe.

EEG technologists are responsible for obtaining accurate recordings and videos. They can answer any technical questions about your recordings.
