Seize a dynamic opportunity as a Travel Respiratory Therapist in New York, Geneva, and beyond, where your expert care can transform patient outcomes while you discover new communities across the United States. In this specialty, your vigilance, technical skill, and compassionate leadership will guide patients through critical respiratory events, support diverse care teams, and elevate the standard of care in fast-paced hospital environments. Imagine entering a role that blends clinical excellence with the freedom to explore iconic landscapes—Geneva’s serene shores on Seneca Lake, the rolling hills of the Finger Lakes, and the vibrant energy of New York State’s urban centers—and then shifting to another community for the next assignment. This is more than a job; it’s a mission to impact lives meaningfully while embracing the beauty and variety that come with traveling as a Respiratory Therapist in this essential field.

Working in Geneva, New York offers a unique blend of small-town warmth and access to remarkable outdoor and cultural experiences. You’ll enjoy the safe, supportive environment of a close-knit community, while your travel opportunities open doors to the wider U.S. healthcare landscape. The state’s seasonal beauty—from the crisp winters near the Adirondacks to the vibrant falls around the Finger Lakes—provides a backdrop for rest, exploration, and renewed energy between shifts. Geneva sits conveniently within reach of wineries, lakeside recreation, and scenic drives, offering downtime that refreshes your focus and enhances your capacity to deliver outstanding patient care. And for those who crave breadth, this assignment serves as a launchpad to work in a variety of U.S. locations, fostering adaptability, expanding clinical perspectives, and widening your professional network.

Location benefits extend well beyond scenery. This role places you in a top-tier healthcare environment that values respiratory expertise and collaborative practice. You’ll benefit from exposure to diverse patient populations and a wide range of pulmonary conditions, from COPD and asthma to post-operative care and critical care scenarios. The opportunity to rotate through different facilities across the U.S. means you’ll gain experience with varying protocols, technologies, and care models, sharpening your clinical judgment and expanding your toolbox. You’ll have access to robust housing options and logistical support designed to ease transition between assignments, enabling you to focus on quality patient care and personal development. With a start date of February 2, 2026, you can plan a path that aligns with your career timeline while enjoying the flexibility that comes with travel healthcare.

Role specifics and benefits come together to create a compelling career experience. As a Respiratory Therapist on this travel assignment, your responsibilities will include assessing and treating patients with acute and chronic respiratory needs, initiating and adjusting inhaled therapies, managing ventilator support with meticulous precision, obtaining and interpreting arterial blood gases, and delivering chest physiotherapy and airway clearance techniques. You will monitor patient responses, titrate therapies, and participate in interprofessional rounds to guide evidence-based care. You’ll educate patients and families about breathing techniques, adherence to treatment plans, and equipment use, while maintaining strict infection control and equipment hygiene. Documentation, compliance with hospital policies, and equipment maintenance will be integral parts of your daily routine. The role also provides avenues for professional growth through exposure to advanced respiratory modalities, procedural competencies, and mentorship opportunities within a supportive team.

Our compensation and benefits reflect the value you bring. This position offers competitive weekly pay in a range of $436 to $454, with the flexibility typical of travel assignments and a plan structured to align with your weeks of work. We provide housing assistance to reduce relocation friction and comprehensive support to ensure smooth transitions between assignments. There are extension opportunities with the same or collaborating facilities, enabling continuity of care for patients you’ve grown to know and the chance to continue advancing in your specialty. In addition to financial parameters, you’ll receive robust clinical and travel support, including 24/7 assistance from our dedicated team as you navigate new environments, onboarding, credentialing, and daily operations on the road. We also emphasize ongoing professional development through continuing education resources and access to clinical mentors, so your clinical voice and leadership can continue to grow.

Company values center on empowering our staff to thrive. We are committed to a culture that prioritizes career advancement, professional recognition, and a supportive work atmosphere where your expertise is respected and your ambitions are nourished. You’ll find a collaborative, patient-centered environment that champions learning, innovation, and compassionate care, with leaders who invest in your growth, celebrate your successes, and help you navigate the evolving landscape of respiratory therapy.
