A PRN Respiratory Therapist provides respiratory care to patients on an as-needed basis, rather than working a regular full-time schedule. They assess, treat, and care for patients with breathing or cardiopulmonary disorders in a variety of healthcare settings. PRN (pro re nata) positions offer flexibility, allowing therapists to fill staffing gaps or provide additional support during busy times. Their responsibilities include administering oxygen, managing ventilators, performing diagnostic tests, and educating patients about respiratory health.

As a PRN (pro re nata or 'as needed') Respiratory Therapist, you can expect a flexible work schedule, often filling in during staff shortages, high census periods, or weekends. While this flexibility is appealing for those seeking work-life balance or supplemental income, it also means your hours may vary and shifts can be assigned with short notice.

PRN roles provide valuable experience in diverse clinical settings and can sometimes lead to full-time opportunities if desired.
