Travel Respiratory Therapist Job

Step into a pivotal role as a traveling Respiratory Therapist in Lawrenceville, Georgia, where your expertise will light the way for patients facing complex respiratory challenges. This weeks-long assignment puts you at the forefront of compassionate care, empowering you to influence outcomes and enrich lives while you discover new communities. Your start date is December 22, 2025, with a guaranteed 36.0 hours per week and a competitive weekly pay range of $1,701 to $1,750. You’ll join a national network that highly values clinical judgment, fosters growth within the respiratory specialty, and supports you every step of the journey. As you deliver patient-centered therapies, you’ll also have opportunities to expand your impact across the United States, building a versatile portfolio of experiences that strengthen your career trajectory.

Georgia offers a compelling backdrop for travel healthcare professionals. Lawrenceville sits just northeast of Atlanta, blending southern hospitality with modern amenities, rich dining, cultural events, and accessible outdoor spaces. From scenic parks and trails to museum experiences, festivals, and a thriving arts scene, Georgia provides an inviting, energizing environment for professionals who value balance and community. For those who crave broader exploration, our assignments can extend beyond Georgia, presenting chances to work in diverse hospitals and clinics across the U.S. You’ll encounter a spectrum of patient populations and health systems, enabling you to sharpen your clinical skills, adapt to varied workflows, and cultivate cross-disciplinary collaboration, all while enjoying the warmth and rich history of each new locale.

In this role, you’ll perform key responsibilities that define excellence in respiratory care and offer significant opportunities for professional growth. You will assess patients’ respiratory status, implement and monitor individualized therapy plans, administer inhaled medications, oxygen therapy, humidification, and non-invasive and invasive ventilation as indicated, and manage weaning from mechanical ventilators with careful multidisciplinary coordination. You’ll perform arterial blood gas analyses and interpret results to guide treatment decisions, adjust therapy per protocols, and respond promptly to deteriorating conditions. Collaboration is essential: you’ll participate in daily rounds with physicians, nurses, and therapists, document thoroughly, and advocate for evidence-based practices that improve patient outcomes. You’ll also contribute to patient and family education, ensuring understanding of therapies, device functioning, and discharge planning. The role emphasizes quality improvement, equipment maintenance, and adherence to safety standards, while offering pathways for certification advancement and specialization within respiratory care. Our program supports you with structured onboarding, ongoing clinical mentorship, and clear opportunities to extend assignments if you wish to deepen your experience in Georgia or explore new settings nationwide.

Competitive benefits accompany this opportunity, including a sign-on bonus where applicable, housing assistance to simplify transitions, and options to extend assignments for continued professional development. You’ll operate within a framework that values your expertise, aligns with evidence-based practice, and provides comprehensive support designed to make travel seamless. In addition, you’ll receive 24/7 support while traveling with the company, ensuring you have reliable help for housing, orientation, credentialing, and clinical questions at any hour. This is more than a job—it's a pathway to broaden your clinical repertoire, network with peers across the country, and advance within an organization that recognizes your commitment to patient care and professional excellence.

Our company is committed to empowering its staff through opportunity, support, and a culture of growth. You’ll find a collaborative environment that prioritizes career advancement, ongoing education, and mentorship, enabling you to pursue specialty certifications, leadership roles, and expanded clinical responsibilities. You’ll work with colleagues who share a patient-first mindset, celebrate achievements, and foster a respectful, inclusive workplace where your contributions are seen and valued. The travel model is designed to enrich your professional journey while maintaining a strong sense of balance and personal well-being.

If you’re ready to apply your respiratory expertise in dynamic settings, deliver exemplary patient care, and accelerate your career across multiple environments, this travel opportunity is for you. Join us to experience meaningful work, competitive compensation, and a supportive network that respects your skills and dedication. Embrace the chance to influence outcomes, learn from diverse clinical teams, and enjoy the freedoms that travel nursing provides, all while contributing to high-quality respiratory care in Lawrenceville and beyond.
