Respiratory Care
Description
Works to improve patient care through education, research, and collaboration supporting providers of respiratory therapy services across the health-care continuum. Respiratory Care touches almost every other CHEST NetWork by focusing on the delivery of respiratory therapy services, collaborative care, and the education of respiratory care practitioners. The NetWork is unique in its collaboration with multiple external professional organizations and in the number of its members who represent CHEST to these organizations.
