Meet our team

Respiratory Care/
Pulmonary Services

With new leadership and new direction, our respiratory care/pulmonary department is growing at a tremendous rate. That is opening up many exciting new career opportunities with plans for the future, including a clinical ladder, ACLS certification for all practitioners and core unit groups.

Our respiratory care practitioners already enjoy outstanding variety and input as they:

Attend interdisciplinary rounds on all units, and serve as an intricate part of physicians’ rounds in the intensive care units
Perform complex procedures, including pressure control, IRV and non-invasive ventilation
Participate on the cardiac arrest and medical emergency teams, and respond to stat calls
Partner with our robust pulmonary function lab to assist with bronchoscopy procedures in the OR, CCU and ER; and our satellite ABG lab in performing cardio-pulmonary exercise testing
Work with our certified Pulmonary Rehabilitation Center
Provide clinical instruction for students, staff, nurses, unit personnel and patients

To support our RCPs in providing an outstanding level of care, all of the leaders of this department are registered respiratory care practitioners. In addition, the medical director, a pulmonologist is very involved with the development and direction of the department.

Our department also has equipment technicians who set up and calibrate all equipment. All documentation is computerized.
