Respiratory Therapy

Respiratory Therapy Degrees: A Respiratory Care Practitioner ("RCP") is a health care professional responsible for implementing interventions related specifically with the respiratory system through the use of theraputic process in conjunction with other health care professionals. Respiratory Care Practitioners work as patient advocates for the care and recovery of patients suffering from respiratory pathology. In their work as advocates for the patient, RCPs use theraputic process to assess, plan, implement, and evaluate respiratory care of the sick and injured. Within the field, Registered Respiratory Therapists have gradually been attaining a significantly expanded scope of practice, education and clinical training compared to that of Respiratory Technicians and Certified Respiratory Therapist's.
