Course Overview:
The purpose of the Respiratory Internship 2 is to provide students enrolled in HACCs Respiratory Therapist AS degree Program the opportunity to continue to develop their patient assessment, management and critical thinking skills beyond the structured clinical/ didactic components of the program. Students must be under direct supervision of a licensed respiratory therapist during this internship. It will also allow the student to make a smooth transition from the student role to the staff therapist role by improving patient care skills and reducing the probability of role conflict upon entry into a staff position. This course is limited to students who are currently enrolled in the Respiratory Therapist AS degree program and have completed HCW 101.
