--- WIKIPEDIA FULL TEXT ---
A respiratory therapist is a specialized healthcare practitioner trained in critical care and cardio-pulmonary medicine in order to work therapeutically with people who have acute critical conditions, cardiac and pulmonary disease. Respiratory therapists graduate from a college or university with a degree in respiratory therapy and have passed a national board certifying examination. The NBRC (National Board for Respiratory Care) is responsible for credentialing as a CRT (certified respiratory therapist), or RRT (registered respiratory therapist) in the United States. The Canadian Society of Respiratory Therapists and provincial regulatory colleges administer the RRT credential in Canada.
The American specialty certifications of respiratory therapy include: CPFT and RPFT (Certified or Registered Pulmonary Function Technologist), ACCS (Adult Critical Care Specialist), NPS (Neonatal/Pediatric Specialist), and SDS (Sleep Disorder Specialist).
Respiratory therapists work in hospitals in the intensive care units (Adult, Pediatric, and Neonatal), on hospital floors, in emergency departments, in pulmonary functioning laboratories (PFTs), are able to intubate patients, work in sleep labs (polysomnography) (PSG) labs, and in home care specifically DME (durable medical equipment) and home oxygen.
Respiratory therapists are specialists and educators in many areas including cardiology, pulmonology, and sleep therapy. Respiratory therapists are clinicians trained in advanced airway management; establishing and maintaining the airway during management of trauma, and intensive care.
Respiratory therapists initiate and manage life support for people in intensive care units and emergency departments, stabilizing, treating and managing pre-hospital and hospital-to-hospital patient transport by air or ground ambulance.
In the outpatient setting respiratory therapists work as educators in asthma clinics, ancillary clinical staff in pediatric clinics, and sleep-disorder diagnosticians in sleep-clinics, they also serve as clinical providers in cardiology clinics and cath-labs, as well as working in pulmonary rehabilitation.


== Clinical practice ==
Respiratory therapy, done by respiratory therapists, is a large variety of treatments to help with breathing and support the heart's work. Giving oxygen and drugs to ease breathing are two examples. Respiratory therapists also do patient assessments.


=== Intensive care and operating room ===
Respiratory therapists educate, assist in diagnosis, and treat people who have heart and lung problems. Specialized in both cardiac and pulmonary care, respiratory therapists often collaborate with specialists in pulmonology and anaesthesia in various aspects of clinical care of patients. Respiratory therapists provide a vital role in both medicine and nursing such as the initiation and maintenance of mechanical ventilation.


=== Outpatient clinical practice ===
Respiratory therapists are also primary clinicians in conducting tests to measure lung function and teaching people to manage asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disorder among other cardiac and lung functions.
Internationally, respiratory therapists that provide lung function testing are termed respiratory scientists, but in North America, they may be a respiratory therapist.


=== Home-health care ===
Outside of clinics and hospitals, respiratory therapists often manage home oxygen needs of patients and their families, providing around the clock support for home ventilators and other equipment for conditions like sleep apnea.
In the clinic or outpatient setting respiratory therapists assist with diagnosis and serve as an educator for patients with cardiac and respiratory illness. In the United States, respiratory therapists with certification as registered respiratory therapists evaluate and treat patients with a great deal of autonomy under the direction of a pulmonologist. In facilities that maintain critical care transport teams respiratory therapists are a preferred addition to all types of surface or air transport.


=== Public education ===
In other settings respiratory therapists are found in schools as asthma educators, working with teachers and coaches about childhood symptoms of asthma and how to spot an emergency. In the United States, legislation has been unsuccessfully introduced several times to allow respiration therapists certified as asthma specialists with registered respiratory therapist certification to prescribe and manage previously diagnosed respiratory patients in physician clinics. In sleep clinics, respiratory therapists work with physicians in the diagnosis of sleep-related illnesses. Respiratory therapists in the United States are migrating toward a role with autonomy similar to the   extension of the physician like the physician assistant. Respiratory therapists are frequently utilized as complete cardiovascular specialists to place and manage arterial accesses along with peripherally-inserted central catheters.


== Credentialing and licensure ==


=== United States and Canada ===
In the United States and Canada, respiratory therapists are healthcare practitioners who, after receiving their education, complete a credentialing process and become a certified respiratory therapists (CRT) or registered respiratory therapists (RRTs).
After satisfactorily completing the required examinations and being added to a registry, the practitioner is then eligible to apply for a license to practice in the region governed by their respective licensing body.
In the United States, specialist respiratory therapists are clinicians who hold National Board for Respiratory Care specialty credentials, which may include neonatal/pediatric specialist (CRT-NPS or RRT-NPS), adult critical care specialist (RRT-ACCS), sleep disorder specialist (CRT-SDS or RRT-SDS), and pulmonary function technologist (CPFT or RPFT). The NBRC's RRT-ACCS examination is the newest NBRC examination: it was introduced in 2012.
In the United States, one must obtain a degree in respiratory care and must then sit for the board exams to become a RRT. RRT is issued by the National Board for Respiratory Care after passing the Therapist Multiple-Choice Examination NBRC-TMC and Clinical Simulation Examination NBRC-CSE examinations. Eligibility for the NBRC-CSE examination is based on scoring high enough on the NBRC-TMC, and holding at least an Associate of Science in Respiratory Care. Professional credentials denoted as a Certified Asthma Educator (AE-C) may also be earned by passing the National Asthma Educator Certification Board (NAECB) exam.
In some parts of Canada, one may practice as a provisional respiratory therapist after graduating, until writing and passing the CBRC exam. The RRT certification is granted by examination from the Canadian Society of Respiratory Therapists.


==== Scope of practice ====
The registered respiratory therapist is typically governed by their medical director for clinical services and their licensing body for laboratory, rehabilitation and home-health services. Trained in cardiology and pulmonology medicine. The registered respiratory therapist is prepared didactically and clinically to perform advanced procedures and emergency management. Actual scope of practice varies by region and institution.


== International respiratory care ==
Except for the United States and Canada, very few countries have a dedicated professional role for respiratory health. In these countries, respiratory care is provided by physiotherapists, nurses and physicians that have chosen to specialize in this field. In many countries this recognition is in a transition stage; as an example, in 2011, a journal from China claimed that hospitals in Beijing, China began a recruitment drive to acquire respiratory therapists for their intensive care units where previously nurses were the only clinician.

Upon graduation from an accredited school of respiratory therapy, the graduate is

--- PROSE FIELDS ---

ROLE SUMMARY:
Respiratory therapists are specialized healthcare practitioners who assess, treat, and care for patients with breathing disorders, maintaining primary responsibility for all respiratory care modalities including supervision of respiratory therapy technicians. They operate mechanical ventilators, therapeutic gas administration apparatus, and other life-support equipment while monitoring patients' physiological responses to therapy. These professionals work in critical care settings including hospitals, neonatal intensive care units, and emergency departments as essential members of healthcare teams.

DAY IN THE LIFE:
A respiratory therapist begins by reviewing patient charts and collaborating with physicians and nurses to develop treatment plans for patients with breathing disorders. Throughout the day, they set up and operate mechanical ventilators, monitor patients' vital signs and arterial blood gases, and adjust equipment settings to optimize therapeutic outcomes. They inspect, clean, and maintain respiratory therapy equipment to ensure safe and efficient operation, while documenting patient responses and therapy information in medical records. Emergency situations require them to provide artificial respiration, assist with cardiopulmonary resuscitation, or make urgent equipment repairs. They regularly explain treatment procedures to patients to gain cooperation and address concerns, while relaying blood analysis results and other critical information to physicians.

WHO THRIVES:
Individuals who excel as respiratory therapists possess strong attention to detail and dependability, as patient safety depends on precise equipment operation and careful monitoring. They demonstrate exceptional critical thinking abilities and problem sensitivity to quickly assess patient conditions and make appropriate therapeutic adjustments. Successful respiratory therapists have excellent communication skills for patient education and healthcare team collaboration, combined with the emotional resilience to work in high-stress critical care environments. Those with a service orientation and genuine concern for patient welfare find fulfillment in this role, as do detail-oriented individuals who appreciate working with complex medical technology.

CAREER ENTRY:
Entry into respiratory therapy typically requires completion of an associate degree program, with 82.8% of practitioners holding this credential according to education distribution data. Programs include coursework in anatomy, physiology, chemistry, and specialized respiratory care techniques, followed by clinical training in healthcare settings. Graduates must pass the National Board for Respiratory Care examination to become certified respiratory therapists (CRT) or registered respiratory therapists (RRT). Some practitioners enter through post-secondary certificate programs (5.2%) or pursue bachelor's degrees (11.7%) for advanced practice opportunities.

CAREER TRAJECTORY:
Respiratory therapists can advance to supervisory roles overseeing respiratory therapy departments or specialize in areas like neonatal intensive care, cardiopulmonary rehabilitation, or sleep disorder diagnostics. Many pursue additional certifications in specialized areas such as neonatal/pediatric care or critical care, which can lead to higher wages and increased responsibility. Advanced practitioners may transition into education roles training new respiratory therapists, move into healthcare administration, or specialize in equipment sales and technical support for medical device companies.

MARKET INTELLIGENCE:
The respiratory therapy field employs 139,790 professionals with a median annual wage of $82,280 according to BLS OEWS May 2025 data, ranging from $63,660 to $118,050 for the 10th to 90th percentiles. Geographic wage variation is significant, with the District of Columbia offering the highest wages at $111,950 compared to Puerto Rico's $35,000, representing a 3.20x ratio. The vast majority of employment (129,490 positions) is concentrated in healthcare and social assistance settings, with additional opportunities in administrative support services and wholesale trade. The profession shows strong demand driven by aging populations, increased prevalence of respiratory conditions, and technological advances requiring specialized expertise.

AUTOMATION OUTLOOK:
Respiratory therapy faces moderate automation risk in equipment monitoring and data recording functions, but the core therapeutic and patient care aspects remain highly resistant to automation. The need for clinical decision-making, patient education, emergency response, and complex equipment troubleshooting requires human expertise and interpersonal skills that current technology cannot replicate. Emerging technology will likely enhance rather than replace respiratory therapists, with advanced monitoring systems and artificial intelligence supporting clinical decisions while practitioners focus on direct patient care and complex therapeutic interventions.
