Respiratory Therapy Degrees: General Info
Respiratory therapists work with patients suffering from asthma, emphysema and other respiratory ailments. Hospitals and clinics employ physicians who specialize in respiratory medicine along with technically skilled workers who are employed as respiratory technicians or assistants. While earning an M.D. may take a decade or more, including undergraduate studies, there are associate degree programs available for those interested in technical positions. Respiratory therapy technicians monitor patients and perform some procedures using advanced computer software and medical hardware. Growing rates of smoking related illnesses, diseases linked to increased air pollution and other respiratory ailments have resulted in an increased demand for health care professionals prepared to care for patients with respiratory distress.
