Step into a vital role as a Registered Respiratory Therapist in Ukiah, California, and empower patients with compassionate, cutting-edge care in a community that values connection, wellness, and resilience. This opportunity within the Respiratory Therapy specialty lets you leverage your expertise to optimize airway management, oxygenation, ventilation, and patient education, guiding individuals and families through complex care journeys with confidence and empathy. Picture yourself making a measurable difference each shift, collaborating with seasoned teams, and advancing your clinical skills in a supportive, dynamic setting. Beyond the hospital walls, California unveils breathtaking frontiers—from the towering Redwoods to the rugged Mendocino coastline and sun-kissed wine country—offering countless opportunities to recharge, explore, and reconnect with what inspires you.
Location benefits and experiences matter. Ukiah sits in the heart of Northern California’s wine country, with easy access to scenic parks, trails, and cultural events that celebrate local craftsmanship and community.

Role specifics and benefits. As a Respiratory Therapist specializing in the Registered scope, you will:
- Provide skilled respiratory care across acute care settings, including ventilator management, airway clearance techniques, NIV/oxygen therapy, bronchopulmonary hygiene, and arterial blood gas interpretation.
- Perform comprehensive patient assessments, monitor respiratory status, titrate therapies, adjust treatment plans in collaboration with physicians, and participate in weaning and liberation strategies as appropriate.
- Deliver evidence-based interventions for a wide range of conditions—from COPD exacerbations to post-operative pulmonary care—while educating patients and families to promote understanding, adherence, and long-term wellness.
- Collaborate closely with nurses, physicians, and rehabilitation teams to optimize outcomes, contribute to rounds, document precisely, and engage in quality improvement initiatives.
- Pursue professional growth within the respiratory domain, with opportunities to specialize, gain additional certifications, and expand your impact across related clinical areas.
- Benefit from a robust support system designed for travelers, including 24/7 assistance to resolve any logistical or clinical questions that arise on assignment.
- Access competitive compensation, including a weekly pay range of $1,730-$1,777, with the potential for performance bonuses, housing assistance, and contract extensions that recognize your value and dedication.
- Experience flexible assignment structures with Start Date: 02/09/2026 and durations described in weeks, with extension options available based on performance, staffing needs, and mutual interest.
