    Evaluate patients with breathing difficulties or cardiopulmonary issues by reviewing their medical history, conducting physical exams, and interpreting diagnostic tests such as blood gases, chest X-rays, and pulmonary function tests.


    Respiratory Care:

    Administer treatments to improve breathing, such as oxygen therapy, mechanical ventilation, chest physiotherapy, and inhalation therapy (e.g., nebulizer treatments).


    Equipment Management:
    Set up and monitor equipment like ventilators, oxygen tanks, CPAP machines, and other respiratory devices. Ensure proper function and maintenance of equipment.

    Emergency Response:
    Respond to emergency situations like respiratory failure, asthma attacks, or trauma, providing immediate life-saving interventions.

    Patient Education:
    Educate patients and families on managing chronic respiratory conditions such as COPD, asthma, and sleep apnea. Teach proper techniques for using respiratory devices and medications.

    Collaboration:

    Work with doctors, nurses, and other healthcare professionals to develop and implement care plans for patients with respiratory conditions.


    Documentation:
    Maintain accurate records of patient assessments, treatments, and progress. Document any changes in the patient's respiratory condition or treatment plan.

    Assist patients in pulmonary rehabilitation programs designed to improve respiratory function, increase exercise tolerance, and reduce symptoms.

    Proficiency in using respiratory equipment and technology.

    Strong knowledge of anatomy, physiology, and pathophysiology related to respiratory care.

    An associate's or bachelor's degree in respiratory therapy from an accredited program.

    Certification:
    Most states require respiratory therapists to be certified.

    Certification is typically obtained through passing an exam offered by the National Board for Respiratory Care (NBRC), such as the Certified Respiratory Therapist (CRT) or Registered Respiratory Therapist (RRT) credential.


    Licensing Requirements by State:

    Licensure Required:
    All states require Respiratory Therapists to be licensed or certified to practice. This typically involves passing the NBRC exams and meeting state-specific licensure requirements.

    States with Licensing Requirements:
    All U.S. states require respiratory therapists to be licensed. However, the specific process and requirements may vary from state to state, including continuing education and renewal processes.

    Requires certification by the California State Respiratory Care Board.
