Respiratory Therapy - Associate of Occupational Science

The breath of life is a precious aspect of our health. Respiratory Therapy is a health care specialty that offers a set of unique challenges in the areas of prevention, diagnosis, treatment, management and rehabilitation of patients with lung problems.

If you enjoy working in a fast-paced environment where your technical and medical responsibilities will be matched by a real need for human relations skills, then a career in Respiratory Therapy may be what you are seeking.

Respiratory Therapists, also known as Respiratory Care Practitioners, specialize in the evaluation, treatment and care of patients with breathing disorders. Whenever the breath of life is at risk, the Respiratory Therapist is called upon to assist. Most Respiratory Therapists work with hospital patients in three distinct phases of care: diagnosis, treatment and patient management. Treatment may range from giving emergency relief to patients with asthma or long term care for chronic conditions such as emphysema.
