Respiratory Therapist

This isn't your typical RT job.

For nearly 30 years, respiratory therapy has been missing from long-term care. We're bringing it back.

This is a new model of care — where you're not just treating symptoms, you're owning outcomes. You work with the same residents every day, track their progress, and build real relationships. No passing through like in a hospital. No hospital grind. Just respiratory care done right, with the time and autonomy to actually do it.

If you've ever wanted to see your impact over weeks and months instead of a single shift — this is it.

What You'll Do

• Provide hands-on respiratory care — nebs, assessments, airway clearance, and more
• Track resident progress and adjust care plans over time
• Partner directly with nursing and physicians to improve outcomes
• Be the respiratory expert in the building

What You Need

• Active state and national RT license in good standing (RRT or CRT)
• Graduate of an AMA-approved respiratory therapy program
• Current BLS (or within 30 days of hire)
• ACLS if working ventilator units (or within 6 months of hire)
• Strong clinical judgment, communication, and the ability to work independently
• Why Banyan
• Consistent patients — you actually see improvement over time
• Autonomy — you're the respiratory lead in the building
