As a traveling RRT, you’ll bring your skill set to diverse hospital environments, collaborating with multidisciplinary teams to optimize ventilation strategies, administer inhaled therapies, perform airway clearance techniques, monitor patients, and interpret data to drive effective care plans.

The state’s northwoods and Great Lakes landscapes invite exploration during time off, balancing a demanding clinical role with restorative downtime. Separately, you’ll have the chance to broaden your experiences across various U.S. locations through our travel program, expanding your clinical exposure, expanding your professional network, and developing a flexible, future-forward career path.

You’ll document interventions accurately, collaborate closely with physicians, nurses, case managers, and therapists, and participate in care planning and patient and family education to improve understanding and adherence. The position also offers avenues for leadership and mentorship, including precepting newer therapists and contributing to quality improvement initiatives.
Benefits you can expect include a competitive compensation package with a dedicated bonus program, housing assistance to ease relocation or temporary lodging, and clear extension opportunities that let you continue building momentum in your travel career. We provide comprehensive support, including 24/7 assistance for travelers, access to an experienced support team to handle logistics, and resources to help you navigate any challenges on the road.
