In this role, you’ll apply advanced respiratory care—from ventilator management and weaning to airway clearance techniques, inhaled therapies, and patient education—collaborating with physicians, nurses, and therapists to deliver outstanding outcomes.

Georgia is a state of natural and cultural richness. From the Blue Ridge Mountains’ spectacular fall colors to the historic streets of Savannah and the dynamic energy of Atlanta, you’ll find inspiration both on and off the floor.

This position positions you in a city-and-suburban mix near Atlanta, offering convenient access to major medical centers, specialized clinics, and continuing education opportunities that reinforce your expertise as a respiratory care professional.

Role specifics and benefits: In this assignment, your responsibilities will include assessing and monitoring patients with acute and chronic respiratory needs, adjusting ventilator settings under physician orders, conducting weaning trials when appropriate, performing airway clearance therapies, delivering inhaled bronchodilators and other medications, and providing education to patients and families. You will participate in rounds, document care accurately, respond to clinical changes, and collaborate with the care team to optimize outcomes. This position offers professional growth within the respiratory therapy specialty, including exposure to diverse patient populations and settings, enabling you to expand competencies in critical care, pediatrics, or long-term care as opportunities arise. The package features a competitive bonus program, comprehensive housing assistance, and extension opportunities for high performers, plus the security of scheduled, predictable hours. You’ll also receive extensive support, including 24/7 assistance from our travel team as you move between assignments, ensuring smooth housing, credentialing, and onboarding.
