Clinical Services Educator-Respiratory Therapy

About the Role

As Clinical Services Manager- Respiratory Therapy, you will lead and standardize clinical education that supports safe, consistent home respiratory care and DME services across the organization. This role exists to strengthen competency, documentation quality, and regulatory readiness while elevating patient and caregiver understanding.

Responsibilities

• Design and deliver onboarding and ongoing training for Respiratory Therapists and applicable staff.
• Build competency tools, checklists, and reference materials.
• Serve as the respiratory therapy subject-matter resource (oxygen, PAP, NIV, aerosol, and airway clearance therapies).
• Support patient/caregiver education standardization.
• Partner on quality reviews, audits, and policy/protocol updates.

A typical day is anchored by planned learning: you start by reviewing training schedules, recent competency results, and any documentation trends that need reinforcement. You may deliver a small-group session, then shift to hands-on demonstrations where staff practice setup, cleaning, and troubleshooting on respiratory and DME equipment. Between sessions, you refine slide decks and quick-reference guides, update competency records, and coordinate with operations and clinical leaders to align education with current standards. When additional support is needed, you help ensure patient and caregiver materials are clear and consistent, and you may provide targeted instruction to improve confidence and adherence. You close the day by logging completed education, preparing for upcoming orientations, and tracking follow-ups so training stays timely, auditable, and practical.
