Respiratory Care Jobs
Respiratory therapy is mostly hospital work: ventilators, blood gases and the code team, on a license every state but Alaska requires. Clinics, sleep labs, and home care hire the same credential for daytime hours.

Your questions about respiratory care jobs, answered
- What does a respiratory therapist do?
Treats breathing problems: asthma and COPD care, oxygen and breathing treatments, and ventilator management in intensive care. RTs respond to codes alongside nurses and physicians.
- What do I need to become a respiratory therapist?
An accredited respiratory therapy program, usually an associate degree, then the NBRC exams and a state license, which nearly every state requires.
- What's the difference between an RRT and a CRT?
2 levels of the same NBRC credential: CRT is the entry tier, RRT the registry tier after the advanced exam. Hospital postings widely prefer or require the RRT.
- Where do respiratory therapists work?
Hospitals mostly, across ICU, ER, and general floors, plus pulmonary clinics, sleep labs, and home care companies that set up oxygen and ventilation at home.
- How is respiratory therapy different from nursing?
RTs specialize in the lungs and airway: ventilators, blood gases, breathing treatments. Nurses carry the whole patient. In an ICU the two work the same rooms with different charts.
- What schedules do respiratory care jobs run?
Hospital RTs work 12-hour shifts including nights and weekends, like nursing. Home care and clinic roles keep weekday hours.
