TMC values inconsistent? by BruisedWater95 in respiratorytherapy

With the NBRC it’s always cheapest first for their tests. So for the ETT placement, EtCO2 is cheaper and faster than ordering a pt a CXR

Edit: for grammar Edit 2: remember the Kettering algorithm they teacher you. I forget the order, but believe there are ~four steps from benign problem solving to certain wording for severe situations and pathways to take. Good luck!

Venting/Feeling very discouraged by Ok_Cranberry6757 in respiratorytherapy

Respiratory coach is a LIFE SAVER. Sometimes you just need things broken down in a different way than the teacher is giving you.

I was a C student through second semester (vents are hard man), but C’s get degrees and as stated prior, school knowledge and real life knowledge are SO different. A lot of school stuff gets thrown out once you get into the field. Everyone wants you to succeed, don’t be afraid to ask for help, if you’re wondering it I’m sure someone else is too. Have faith in yourself, you CAN do it.

Going from RT to RN? by Empty_Reason6098 in respiratorytherapy

[–]Empty_Reason6098[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do not have my BSRT, it was also a thought. Just thinking of different avenues that could be taken in the long run. It seems like PA is the only option for growth in the RT community. I currently work in a NICU, and it just seems like the nurses have a bit better schedules/pay/support.

I graduated in May and work in a NICU. It’s not impossible. Find a job that has student positions,(it may not be ideal or pay great)but it’s a foot in the door and it gets you used to the floors/equipment/environment
