Someone recently sent me an email asking, "What does a respiratory therapist, right out of college, need?" She's looking for gift ideas for a relative who's about to graduate from an RT program. Something RTish that could be useful for a new RT fresh out of school...
Asking me for gift ideas is like asking a drowning man for swimming lessons. I was hoping that others could leave some suggestions in the comments...

More scrubs!
ReplyDeleteA good Littman stethoscope, and not the cardiac one, that's a waste of money, because guess what we're not cardiologists.
ReplyDeleteHow about monogrammed scrubs? Or, a fancy lapel ID pin?
ReplyDeleteHow about the Dana Oaokes sets of books?

I guess I had trouble coming up with suggestions because I already have all of those things, even though I still have another year of school to go.
ReplyDeleteThe Dana Oakes Critical Care Pack is an excellent deal. If those books aren't in my scrub pockets, they're in the trunk of my car.
As you can see there is definitely some fluctuation in the amount a person can expect to earn as a respiratory therapist.http://techniciansalary.net/respiratory-therapist-salary/. Click here
