It’s Respiratory Care Week!
Respiratory therapists play an essential role in helping patients breathe easier, from supporting premature infants and people with chronic respiratory conditions to providing care during medical emergencies.
This week, we recognize the respiratory care professionals who bring skill, compassion, and critical thinking to patient care every day.
