Monitoring and Evaluating Patient Progress:
Continuously monitor the effectiveness of respiratory treatments and adjust therapy as necessary based on patient responses.
Assess patients for signs of respiratory distress and intervene promptly when complications arise.
Track and document patient progress, ensuring treatments are tailored to the patient's evolving needs.
Emergency Response and Critical Care:
Provide emergency respiratory care to patients experiencing respiratory failure, cardiac arrest, or other life-threatening situations.
Administer resuscitation techniques, such as CPR, defibrillation, and advanced airway management, in emergency situations.
Assist with intubation, mechanical ventilation, and weaning from life support when necessary.
Patient Education and Support:
Educate patients and families on proper use of respiratory equipment, medications, and techniques for managing respiratory conditions at home.
Provide guidance on lifestyle changes to improve lung health, such as quitting smoking, controlling asthma triggers, and managing chronic respiratory diseases.
Offer instruction on pulmonary rehabilitation exercises to strengthen lung capacity and improve overall physical health.
Collaboration with Healthcare Team:
Work closely with physicians, nurses, physical therapists, and other healthcare professionals to develop a holistic care plan for respiratory patients.
Attend multidisciplinary care meetings to discuss patient progress, treatment goals, and necessary adjustments.
Communicate effectively with patients and their families, ensuring they understand treatment plans and ongoing care needs.

Ensure proper documentation for insurance billing, treatment plans, and patient updates.
Record patient responses to treatments, including vital signs, oxygen saturation, and any adverse reactions or complications.
