In this role you’ll partner with physicians, nurses, and support teams to deliver evidence-based therapies, monitor patient progress, adjust treatment plans, and educate families—empowering them to participate actively in recovery. Your day-to-day will blend clinical mastery with compassionate communication, ensuring comfort, safety, and measurable outcomes for patients across the respiratory continuum. Alongside the profound difference you’ll make at the bedside, the experience offers a canvas to expand your professional horizons, encounter diverse clinical environments, and cultivate leadership skills that elevate your career within the specialty.

Location benefits are at the heart of this opportunity. Cumming sits in the northern Atlanta metro region, offering easy access to a thriving healthcare ecosystem, excellent schools, and a family-friendly environment. You’ll enjoy convenient commutes, a safe and supportive community, and proximity to amenities that enhance daily life, from parks and trails to dining and cultural experiences.

The role’s compensation reflects the commitment to rewarding your expertise, with a weekly pay range of $1,468 to $1,515 and guaranteed hours of 36 per week, underscoring the stability you deserve while you pursue growth opportunities and contract extensions. Start date is March 16, 2026, aligning with facility needs and your planning, and the program’s supportive framework ensures you can plan ahead with clarity and confidence. The hours and pay rates listed are estimates and may vary; final compensation packages and guaranteed hours will be confirmed during the hiring process.

Role specifics and benefits are crafted to deliver both immediate impact and long-term career advantages. In this position, you’ll perform comprehensive respiratory assessments, administer and titrate inhaled therapies, manage ventilator settings and weaning protocols, monitor patient responses, and escalate concerns promptly as part of a collaborative care team. You’ll interpret arterial blood gases, implement weaning strategies, and tailor treatment plans to diverse patient populations, including those with COPD, post-surgical needs, acute care admissions, and chronic respiratory conditions. Documentation is meticulous, ensuring compliance with safety standards and quality measures, while you document progress and communicate plan-of-care updates to physicians and families. Beyond daily responsibilities, the role offers pathways for professional growth within the Respiratory Therapy specialty—opportunities to engage in continuing education, participate in quality improvement initiatives, partner with mentors, and assume expanded responsibilities as you demonstrate clinical excellence. The package includes a competitive bonus structure, housing assistance to ease transition, and extension opportunities that allow you to extend your impact and deepen your expertise across multiple clinical settings. You will never face travel challenges alone; 24/7 support is provided by the company, ensuring seamless logistics, on-call guidance, and immediate assistance whenever you need it during your travel assignments. This combination of clinical variety, structured support, and meaningful patient interaction cultivates a rewarding, sustainable career trajectory in respiratory care.
