To thrive as a Registered Respiratory Therapist (RRT), you need a solid background in respiratory care, patient assessment, and airway management, typically supported by an associate degree in respiratory therapy and RRT credentialing. Familiarity with ventilators, pulmonary function testing equipment, and electronic health record (EHR) systems is essential.

You’ll collaborate closely with physicians, nurses, and other healthcare professionals to develop and adjust patient care plans. Shifts can be fast-paced, especially in critical care units, and may require balancing multiple priorities, such as handling urgent respiratory distress situations while also providing routine treatments.
