You’ll appreciate the balance of exposure to a university-affiliated health ecosystem and the flexibility to participate in assignments across different U.S. locations, expanding your clinical perspective while maintaining a core specialty focus. While in Pennsylvania, you’ll benefit from reliable access to modern sleep laboratories, supportive scheduling, and opportunities to connect with a community of fellow polysomnographers who share best practices and a commitment to accurate staging, artifact reduction, and patient-centered care.

Role specifics and benefits are designed to maximize your impact and professional growth. In this assignment you’ll perform routine and complex sleep studies, prepare and calibrate polysomnography equipment, monitor patients during overnight and daytime studies, score respiratory events, limb movements, and electroencephalographic data, and collaborate with physicians to interpret results and recommend treatment adjustments. You’ll ensure patient comfort, safety, and privacy, troubleshoot technical issues, maintain strict adherence to lab protocols, and contribute to ongoing quality improvement initiatives. The position offers a clear pathway to expand your expertise in pediatric or adult sleep disorders, advance your scoring proficiency, and deepen your understanding of CPAP, BiPAP, and other modality considerations in treatment planning. Competitive benefits include a sign-on bonus, housing assistance where applicable, and extension opportunities that recognize your reliability and clinical contribution. You’ll enjoy comprehensive support as you travel, including 24/7 assistance from our travel coordination and clinical leadership teams, designed to resolve scheduling, credentialing, or on-site challenges quickly so you can focus on patient care and accurate data capture.
