Led by the Medical Director and the Management Team who prioritize bedside mentorship and continuous development, we operate as a cohesive unit that values both clinical skill and deep, heart-centered empathy.
"I really look for the heart in a candidate. I’m looking for somebody that’s going to go above and beyond for our patients. We have built a wonderful, collaborative culture here where we genuinely help each other without even having to ask. This is my second family. I feel supported and willing to work hard in efforts to provide the best patient experience. As a supervisor, I lead by example, staying hands-on at the bedside to support my team. We are a team of 'lifers' here; this hospital is where I’ve built my career and cared for my family, and I’m proud to be part of the Huntington family." — Clinical Supervisor, Respiratory Therapy

Why Choose Huntington’s Respiratory Therapy
- Deep Clinical Expertise & Peer Support: Work alongside a team where leaders are active at the bedside. Supervisors lead by example—jumping into the workload to support the team, ensuring patient safety, and providing seamless coverage during busy shifts.
- Heart-Centered Advocacy: We look for candidates who lead with their heart. Our respiratory care practitioners are empowered to advocate for every patient’s unique needs, from initiating oxygen therapy, providing appropriate medication for each patient, initiating non-invasive therapy, initiating mechanical ventilation, assisting with bronchoscopy, assisting with swallow evaluations, performing trach care, and even ensuring effective communication for non-English speakers.
- Commitment to Lifelong Learning: We believe education doesn't stop after graduation. We prioritize continuous development through vendor-led refreshers, free seminars, and active encouragement for all staff to stay current with ever-evolving equipment and technology.
- Clear Promotional Pathways: We celebrate growth from within. We have a strong history of therapists starting as staff and, through dedication and peer nomination, advancing into lead roles where they serve as trusted resources.
- Intentional Flexibility & Team Loyalty: Our department is a community of "lifers" who communicate constantly and back each other up, ensuring no one carries a burden alone.
