    Default job background
    Full time
    Description
    One-of-a-kind care comes from one-of-a-kind people.

    As a Respiratory Therapist, you believe in treating the whole person, and not just the disease or illness, going beyond nebulizers, inhalers and ventilators.

    Cardiopulmonary disorders are life-challenging and as a registered respiratory therapist, you understand arterial puncture or cannulation, artificial airway types and sizes, initial ventilatory settings for mechanical ventilation, ventilator changes based on established parameters and patient assignments to staff based on skills inventory.

    And as a compassionate human being, you empathize with the feeling of "I can't breathe" from a child suffering with asthma to an elderly patient with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.

    Respiratory struggles can be exhausting, so you do more than administer treatment.

    Seeing your patients relax and smile after liberation and alleviation of respiratory distress is why you do what you do.

    And we're excited to get to know you and find out what you'll bring to this critical respiratory therapist role.

    *Demonstrate proficiency in critical and general care procedures including patient assessment, ventilator management, arterial punctures, code III response, bronchoscopy assistance, intubation, monitoring equipment, airway management, endo/nasotracheal suctioning, and arterial line placement, aerosol therapy, IPPB, CPT, oxygen therapy, incentive spirometry, aerochamber/inhaler, and peak flow meters.

    • Organize and set priorities while assuring safe operation of all equipment needed for patient care and procedures within the established guidelines and timeframes.
    • Manage equipment/supply needs appropriately.
    • Demonstrate quality improvement commitment through accurate monitoring, documentation, and incidents.
    • Participate in planning and problem solving.
    • Adhere to BSI policies at all times.
    • Follow, instruct and enforce others on infection control policies and procedures.
    • Licensed Respiratory Therapist - Louisiana State Board of Medical Examiners
    • Registered Respiratory Therapist (CRT) - National Board for Respiratory Care (NBRC)
    • Deliver healthcare with heart.
    • LCMC Health
    Our people make health happen.

    While our NOLA roots run deep, our branches are the vessels that carry our mission of bringing the best possible care to every person and parish in Louisiana and beyond and put a little more heart and soul into healthcare along the way.

    Celebrating authenticity, originality, equity, inclusion and a little "come on in" attitude is the foundation of LCMC Health's culture of everyday extraordinary.
