13 yrs strong and wouldn't change a thing. As a Respiratory Therapist, you may think I am just a person that gives breathing treatments all day. While I do, I also have a lot of other things that fall under my job title. In case you didn’t know, I am my patients airway! When they can’t breathe, I am the person you want at the bedside. Most people have no idea what a respiratory therapist is, let alone what they do! An RT is the person that maintains the life support. We control every aspect of the ventilator. We are taught to know exactly what is happening and our goal is to get them off of life support as soon as possible, to give them their best chance at a normal life. We do a breathing treatment in one room and remove the tube from a dying patients lungs in the next room. With a room full of crying eyes on us, knowing they will never forget our face, because we are the person removing the only thing that is keeping their loved one alive. We hold our composure while doing so, to cause as little stress on our patients family as possible. We empathize and put ourself in their position. We also, remain in the room at times and hold their hand as they take their last breath, because they have no family to be there with them. We do exams alongside MD’s that determine whether a patient is brain dead. Those patients really stick with us and some of us end up crying the entire ride home. When a patient has no heart beat and the only thing between life and death is CPR, we are at the head of the bed, we place the airway, we ensure that it is in the correct position and give them manual breaths. We deal with gun shot victims, stabbings, cardiac arrests, car crashes, motorcycle crashes, inhalation burns, asthmatics, and so many more. We see things that most people can’t stomach. We have to know so many different diseases (COPD, Asthma, emphysema, ARDS, Cystic Fibrosis just to name a few) how to treat them, what medicine will help and work for each patient and are we doing everything possible to ensure the patient is getting better. We have patients that range from 22 weeks gestation to over one hundred years old. We work long shifts and often take our work home with us. We lie awake thinking about the patient we just can’t turn around and ask ourselves if there was anything we could have done different. We get called “Nurse.” At least once a shift and that’s ok with us because, we work alongside some of the most amazing nurses! We simply smile and assist the person with what they need and continue our day. We chose this career to save people and to make a difference and we’re glad we did! This week is Respiratory Care Week! 😁 The one week out of the year that we get a little bit of recognition in a field that we are often forgotten or mistaken as something else! We make every breath count! We ARE Respiratory Therapists !!! #RespiratoryCareWeek2023 #RTsmattertoo #proudtobeRT #ThankanRT

🎉It's National Respiratory Care Week 🌬️ From the quiet battle against chronic respiratory issues to the intense frontlines of critical care units, these dedicated professionals are the unsung heroes behind every breath we take. They're the ones who stay up late into the night, monitoring oxygen levels and ensuring each inhale and exhale is a step towards recovery. This week, let's shine a spotlight on their tireless efforts. It's not just about the knowledge they wield, but also the compassion they bring to every interaction. They're educators, listeners, and advocates for lung health, and they inspire us all to take our breath a little more seriously. Think about the times you've caught your breath after a run, laughed until your sides hurt, or simply savored a moment of quiet inhalation. It's all thanks to the magic of healthy lungs, and the respiratory therapists who make sure our lungs stay in tune. Let's raise awareness about lung health and give a standing ovation to these unsung champions during Respiratory Care Week!
