"Growing up in a family that was involved in the healthcare field, I knew that I wanted to follow in that path as well. After shadowing at my local hospital in high school, I realized that my love for technology would blend well with my need to care for the sick. Since I was a young girl, I have been fascinated by technology. As I progressed through Respiratory Therapy schooling and clinical rotations, I caught on very easily to the equipment we use daily, and I look forward to being an expert on the team in this area."

"During my career as an RT, working as part of a larger team to care for patients keeps me motivated in this job every single day. I love that I get to work with nurses, physicians, hospital administrators, and fellow Respiratory Therapists daily. We all have our areas of expertise and can learn from each other to help the needs of our patients, and that fact makes this a fun and rewarding career."

Explain what you like the most about your job and why. Maybe you enjoy encouraging your patients and seeing them light up as they make progress. Maybe you are interested in the rapidly changing technology that you get to use as a part of the treatment you offer. Whatever your greatest joy is in this career, make sure your interviewer knows that this keeps you motivated to be at your best every day on the job as a Respiratory Therapist.

"Having entered into this career field to be able to help people in need, I love being a part of a great outcome with patients. For every patient I see, I try to follow up with them while they are hospitalized to see the progress they've made. Any time that a patient or family member thanks me for my work, I leave with a giant smile on my face knowing that those moments make the grind of being an RT well worth it!"
