Travel Respiratory Therapist Job

Embark on a dynamic Travel Respiratory Therapist assignment in the Georgia Lawrenceville area, where your clinical expertise will directly impact patient recovery and comfort. In this Respiratory Therapist role, you’ll deliver pivotal care across pulmonology, critical care, and post-acute settings, guiding patients through therapies, monitoring devices, and education that improve outcomes. This contract begins on 03/09/2026 and runs for several weeks, with guaranteed 36 hours each week and a competitive pay range of $1,491 to $1,557 per week. The opportunity is more than a paycheck—it's a platform to elevate your practice, expand your professional network, and experience the joy of helping families navigate health challenges. Working in Lawrenceville also situates you near the vibrant life of metro Atlanta, while offering the chance to explore Georgia’s beauty in downtime. From the rolling hills and fall colors of the northern part of the state to the coastal charm a few hours away, Georgia is rich with scenic parks, historic towns, and cultural experiences that can refresh your perspective as you travel.

Location Benefits: While Lawrenceville serves as your home base, this travel assignment opens doors to working in various locations across the country. You’ll gain exposure to different hospital systems, patient populations, and clinical settings—each enriching your expertise and broadening your professional portfolio. Lawrenceville’s proximity to Atlanta provides easy access to regional conferences, advanced training opportunities, and a thriving healthcare ecosystem that fosters collaboration. Beyond work, you’ll have the chance to enjoy Georgia’s diverse experiences—from the family-friendly attractions and outdoor recreation around suburban Atlanta to day trips to the historic streets of Savannah or the scenic trails of the North Georgia mountains. The state’s climate, friendly communities, and rich culinary scene offer a welcoming backdrop as you advance your career with flexibility and purpose.

Role Specifics and Benefits: As a Respiratory Therapist on assignment, you will assess and monitor patients’ respiratory status, administer prescribed therapies (inhaled medications, oxygen therapy, aerosolized treatments), and manage respiratory devices including ventilators when required. You’ll perform airway clearance techniques, pulmonary function testing, bronchodilator challenges, arterial blood gas sampling, and chest physiotherapy as part of a multidisciplinary team. You’ll coordinate care with physicians, nurses, and therapists, document accurately, and provide hands-on education to patients and families about therapies, equipment, and discharge planning. Opportunities for professional growth are woven into the role: deepen expertise in neonatal, pediatric, or adult critical care, advance airway management skills, pursue sleep medicine and nocturnal monitoring, or engage in targeted continuing education to enhance credentialing. The position supports contract extensions and ongoing placements for consistent clinical advancement.

In addition to clinical duties, you’ll receive competitive benefits designed to support your life on the road: a generous bonus structure, comprehensive housing assistance to simplify relocation and stay, and a straightforward pathway to extension opportunities so you can continue making an impact beyond an initial term. The package includes guaranteed hours of 36 per week with a weekly pay framework in the stated range. You’ll also benefit from robust, 24/7 support as you travel with the company—our dedicated team is available around the clock to assist with scheduling, onboarding, credentialing, and on-the-ground needs. All of this is delivered with a focus on safety, quality care, and your well-being during every assignment.
