Respiratory Therapists (RT) are inspiring healthcare professionals dedicated to better breathing.
Respiratory therapists assess, monitor, and treat people with respiratory and cardio-respiratory disorders. In Richmond, you’ll find RTs working in the hospital and in the community.
You’ll find RTs in the Intensive Care Unit providing life support for very sick patients.
You’ll also find RTs in the Emergency Department, OR, Bronchoscopy Suite, Pulmonary Function Lab, and helping patients transition home safely to participate in pulmonary rehab, asthma education, and smoking cessation programs.
Remember to thank an RT this week for the hard work they do to improve everyone’s quality of life.
