Hospital RRT- West Branch, Michigan
Job Description
Respiratory Therapist (RRT) — Field/Office Based Model
West Branch, Michigan
What This Role Actually Is
As a Respiratory Therapist in our Field/Office team, you’ll carry a dedicated caseload of ventilator-dependent pediatric and ALS patients… in their residencies, on their terms.
You’re the clinical expert who bridges the gap between the hospital and home, ensuring these patients and their families have everything they need to stay safe, stable, and out of the ER.
You’ll be the person they call. The one who knows their equipment, their history, and their family by name.
Why This Role Stands Out
- Monday-Friday, 8:00-5:00 — no nights, no weekends, no rotating shifts, no on-call
- Autonomy to manage your own caseload and territory
- Work that blends critical care expertise with education, advocacy, and genuine human connection
- Get out of the hospital without leaving clinical practice behind
What You’ll Do
- Manage and monitor a caseload of home ventilator-dependent patients (pediatric and/or ALS)
- Perform comprehensive respiratory assessments and reassessments in the home setting
- Provide hands-on ventilator and equipment training to patients and caregivers
- Set up, troubleshoot, and optimize highly technical respiratory equipment
- Serve as the primary clinical liaison between patients, families, and physician teams
- Support care coordination and continuity across the full care team
- Maintain accurate clinical documentation per regulatory standards
What You Bring
- Active, unrestricted RRT (Michigan)
- Experience with pediatric and/or ALS ventilator management (required)
- Critical care, PICU, or home health respiratory background — ideal
- Familiarity with ventilator platforms such as Care Orchestrator or Astral — a plus
- Valid driver’s license and willingness to travel within your assigned territory (~45 miles of West Branch)
- A clinician who communicates well, works independently, and genuinely cares about outcomes
Compensation & Benefits
- Competitive hourly rate on experience + sign-on bonuses + mileage reimbursements
- Full medical, dental, and vision coverage
- 401(k) with company match
- Paid time off and paid holidays
- Life and disability insurance
- Employee assistance and wellness programs
