    Peace be to you! This was a VERY good review of this amazing field! The RT s with whom I work are INVALUABLE when it comes to achieving optimal clinical outcomes for our patients.

    Can patient family sue the respiratory therapist for not saving the persons life with the appropriate adequate oxygen needed? Are the respiratory therapists protected if something like this happens????

      No usually they are protected by organization they work for. But regardless situations like that can be avoided if they know what they are doing.

      You wouldn’t know what the “appropriate adequate oxygen” is needed in the first place. And you’re assuming that person died due to lack of oxygen.

    Choose R.N., NOT respiratory therapist. Physicians refer to respiratory as 'ancillary', lumped in with C.N.A.s. Despite taking the same general education, prerequisites and sciences respiratory earns about 20% to 30% LESS THAN R.N.s.
    R.N.s and M.D.s ate lunch, conversed idly, and even dated/married; yet, NEARLY never, can the same be said of the LOWLY respiratory therapist. My usual contribution to the 'team' was, " SaO2 is something %" followed by, "ok, ya sure", by the Pulmonologist. 37 years of such 'team work' was not pleasant, or worth it. Further, the nature of the discipline greatly diminishes the areas needed, thus opportunities are diminished. Choose R.N., NOT respiratory therapist.
