Join Health Care’s Front-Line Warriors
As the world battles COVID-19, respiratory therapists (R.T.) continue to emerge as inspiring health care heroes. Millions of people gain a newfound respect for both the profession and the people in it, as they watch these dedicated professionals fight tirelessly alongside physicians to help patients survive.
As an R.T., you help people breathe easier: those suffering from asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), pneumonia, lung cancer and viruses like COVID-19 that directly attack the lungs and respiratory system. Many respiratory therapists will tell you this is more than a job — it's a calling. The role demands compassion, dedication, and strong internal motivation to save and improve others’ lives.
Whether you aspire to become a R.T. or already practice and seek higher-level roles and earnings, Nova Southeastern University has the targeted respiratory therapy program to achieve your goals, including flexible online options for working R.T.s. Learn from experts in the profession, including experienced physicians and national respiratory therapy leaders.
Our profession needs more warriors! Join the R.T. ranks or soar higher as a leader and role model for others.
