This role offers flexibility, higher earning potential, and diverse work experiences, but also requires managing contracts, insurance, and licensing independently.

To excel as an Independent Contractor Travel RRT (Registered Respiratory Therapist), you need a current RRT credential, valid state licensure, and comprehensive experience in respiratory care.
