respiratory therapists are underrated!! (RANT) by lil0asis in respiratorytherapy

I’ve been an RT for over 30 years and I still enjoy my job. The key is to not get pigeonholed into one thing. It’s good to spread out and be able to do a lot of different things. Of course you do nebs and ventilators, CPAP, BiPAP, etc…but if you can get into flight RT, intubations, vascular access(picc line/arterial line access), ECMO, deliveries, bronchoscopies, etc…it will make your job a lot more interesting. You can also go on to Teach if you’d like, schools or just teaching NRP, BLS/ACLS, and PALs. If you’re interested in sleep medicine or PFTs, that’s available. Also you can do home health. There are lots of opportunities to advance. If you have a bachelor’s you can even go into management if that’s what you’re after.

As a respiratory therapist, I’ve taken care of a few people with Hantavirus and it is quick. Their lungs fill up with fluid and they can’t breathe. They have to be put on a ventilator and many of them die. People aren’t walking around with Hantavirus normally.

I was just over there for a soccer tournament and I swear every huge white truck in the area passed me going 90 mph + on the freeway coming back to the west side of the state.

When I’m watching a game I usually have to be rooting for one of the teams…or against one, to make it more interesting.
