Angel’s Answer

To become a respiratory therapist, you'll typically need an associate's or bachelor's degree in respiratory therapy, along with clinical training. After that, you’ll need to pass a national certification exam to get licensed.

The role can be incredibly rewarding, as you help patients breathe easier and improve their quality of life. However, it can also be challenging—dealing with critically ill patients and their families can be tough emotionally. Key skills include strong communication, empathy, problem-solving, and the ability to stay calm under pressure. With dedication, it’s a fulfilling career!
