You are on your way to becoming a successful

Respiratory Care Therapist

 

Today doctors and scientists have a better understanding than ever of the nature of asthmatic bronchitis, chronic bronchitis, and emphysema.  These diseases are viewed as damage to the lungs as a result of two factors.  Primarily the hereditary loss of certain lung defenses, which leaves lungs more vulnerable to damage. 

And the second factor is outside conditions such as smoking, air and environmental pollution, and in some cases, frequent infections. 

The future of a respiratory care therapist promises more advances in understanding why patients get asthmatic bronchitis, chronic bronchitis, and emphysema.

Diagnosing any breathing problem at an early stage is as important as helping your patience successfully take a breath. 

Diagnosing asthmatic bronchitis, chronic bronchitis, and emphysema early can save your breath, and your life!

The demand for respiratory care therapists is rapidly growing. Becoming a student with the Hannibal LaGrange and Hannibal Career & Technical Center's respiratory care program is going to be your first step to success!
