Respiratory Therapist (RT) - Full Time and PRN Positions

Banyan Pulmonary Services · Aurora, MO · 4 days ago
On-siteHealthcareFull-time

About the role

This isn't your typical RT job. For nearly 30 years, respiratory therapy has been missing from long-term care. We're bringing it back. This is a new model of care — where you're not just treating symptoms, you're owning outcomes. You work with the same residents every day, track their progress, and build real relationships. No passing through like in a hospital. No hospital grind. Just respiratory care done right, with the time and autonomy to actually do it. If you've ever wanted to see your impact over weeks and months instead of a single shift — this is it.

What You'll Do

  • Provide hands-on respiratory care — nebs, assessments, airway clearance, and more
  • Track resident progress and adjust care plans over time
  • Partner directly with nursing and physicians to improve outcomes
  • Be the respiratory expert in the building

What You Need

  • Active state and national RT license in good standing (RRT or CRT)
  • Graduate of an AMA-approved respiratory therapy program
  • Current BLS (or within 30 days of hire)
  • ACLS if working ventilator units (or within 6 months of hire)
  • Strong clinical judgment, communication, and the ability to work independently

Why Banyan

  • Consistent patients — you actually see improvement over time
  • Autonomy — you're the respiratory lead in the building
  • Support — we handle the backend (billing, scheduling, compliance) so you can focus on care
  • Growth — help build something new in post-acute respiratory care
  • Better pay + referral bonuses — bring your favorite coworkers with you

Schedule

Setting: Travel between nearby partner facilities. Schedule depends on FT/PRN status; 7 am - 7 pm shifts. Physical: Frequent walking, standing, reaching and handling of respiratory equipment throughout the day.
