Are you seeking a flexible role outside the traditional hospital setting? Somewhere that allows you to work at a pace that ensures high-quality patient care while maintaining work-life balance? Are you a compassionate and skilled Respiratory Therapist? Do you thrive in a fast-paced environment where your work directly supports patient care? If so, Owens could be the right fit for you!

  • Perform patient assessments, equipment setups, and follow-ups to support effective therapy and positive patient outcomes
  • Initiate and support non-invasive ventilation (CPAP/BiPAP) and invasive ventilation therapies, ensuring proper setup and patient/caregiver understanding
  • Set up and educate patients on airway clearance therapies and proper techniques
  • Educate patients and caregivers on equipment use, safety, troubleshooting, and cleaning procedures
  • Monitor therapy adherence and effectiveness, including compliance tracking for sleep and ventilation patients

  • Troubleshoot equipment issues and coordinate repairs or replacements as needed
  • Communicate patient updates and concerns to supervisors and care teams
  • Ensure compliance with company policies, regulatory requirements, and payer guidelines
  • Safely operate and maintain company vehicle and equipment (if applicable during assigned shifts)
  • Stay current on respiratory therapies, equipment, and company procedures through ongoing education

What Makes You a Great Fit

  • Strong critical thinking and problem-solving skills
  • Ability to remain calm and effective in high-pressure situations
  • Excellent communication and teamwork abilities
  • Self-motivated and able to work independently in a per diem capacity
  • Dedication to providing compassionate, patient-centered care

Qualifications

  • High school diploma or equivalent (Required)
  • Associate's (Required) or Bachelor's or Master's in Respiratory Therapy (Preferred)
  • Current Respiratory Therapist license (RRT or CRT) in the state of practice
  • Previous clinical or hospital experience preferred
  • Experience in home medical equipment as a Respiratory Therapist not required, but a plus
  • Clean DMV Record

What We Offer

  • Competitive Pay

  • Opportunity to supplement income with per diem shifts
  • Supportive, team-based environment
  • Meaningful work that directly impacts patient quality of life
