Travel Respiratory Therapist Job

Answer the call to advanced respiratory care as a Respiratory Therapist on a travel assignment in Georgia, specifically Lawrenceville. Beginning 03/02/2026, this weeks-long engagement guarantees 36.0 hours per week and offers a competitive weekly pay of $1,488 to $1,517. In this role you won’t simply monitor vents; you’ll lead airway management, rapid assessment, bronchopulmonary hygiene, and weaning strategies that empower patients to breathe easier and regain independence. You’ll work alongside cross-functional teams, navigate diverse clinical environments, and deepen your specialty through hands-on practice, continuing education, and real-world leadership opportunities. Whether you’re coordinating with physicians, teaching patients and families, or mentoring newer therapists, your expertise will shape outcomes in critical moments and routine care alike.

Georgia is a state of contrasts and charm, and you’ll feel its beauty wherever you go. From the tree-lined streets of Lawrenceville to the sunlit trails of Stone Mountain Park, from the vibrant cultural mile of Atlanta to the tranquil shores of the Golden Isles, Georgia invites exploration after shifts and on days off. Historic Savannah’s moss-draped oaks, the Blue Ridge’s mountain air, and easy weekend escapes along the coastline offer balance for a demanding career. This assignment can be the gateway to a new lifestyle where professional purpose and outdoor wonder coexist.

Location benefits go beyond a hospital corridor. Lawrenceville puts you in a thriving metro area with top-ranked schools, welcoming neighborhoods, and easy access to major airports for occasional travel between facilities. For the traveler-therapist, there is the added benefit of opportunities to rotate through facilities in other U.S. locations, expanding your professional network and exposing you to varied patient populations, equipment, and protocols. You’ll receive housing assistance to ease transition, competitive compensation with weekly pay, and the security of guaranteed hours. This environment supports both clinical excellence and personal growth as you balance patient care with the chance to explore new communities.

Role specifics and benefits go beyond a traditional assignment. You’ll perform comprehensive respiratory assessments, adjust therapy with appropriate prescription protocols, manage ventilation and weaning, administer bronchopulmonary hygiene, and deliver patient and family education. You’ll participate in care planning with physicians and other therapists, contribute to the refinement of evidence-based protocols, and seize opportunities for professional growth within the respiratory specialty—whether your interest lies in acute care, pulmonary rehabilitation, pediatrics, or adult critical care. The package includes a sign-on or completion bonus where applicable, housing assistance to ease relocation, and the possibility of contract extensions so you can build continuity in your career. The program also emphasizes flexible scheduling, ongoing education credits, and robust clinical mentorship. And you’ll enjoy 24/7 support while traveling with the company, including access to a dedicated travel concierge, clinical experts, and on-call resources whenever you need them.

Our partner company is committed to empowering respiratory therapists, celebrating professional development, and fostering a supportive workplace culture. You’ll find clear career pathways, mentorship from seasoned leaders, and resources designed to help you advance—from advanced airway techniques to leadership roles in multidisciplinary teams. The environment is collaborative, inclusive, and focused on your well-being, with tools to manage work-life balance while delivering outstanding patient care. You’ll be encouraged to innovate, share best practices, and contribute to a culture that values your expertise as much as your compassionate care.
