Spokane, a city of around 210,000 people, is located along the Spokane River in eastern Washington state, only about 20 miles from the Idaho border. The topography of the city is unique, as it lies at the edge of the plains of the Columbia plateau and on the border of the Selkirk Mountains. This mixture of terrain means that Spokane offers limitless outdoor recreational activities, including hiking, biking, swimming and boating in the summer and skiing, snowboarding, snowmobiling, and dog sledding in winter.
Respiratory therapists specialize in treating acute and chronic respiratory conditions, including asthma, cardiac arrest, drowning, blockages, anaphylaxis reactions, emphysema, lung infections and cancers. Under the guidance of a physician, they work in all units within a hospital, including the ICU, Pediatric ICU, Neonatal ICU, ER, sleep and pulmonary labs, or in nursing homes and home health settings. They conduct many diagnostic and analytic procedures such as evaluating lung capacity, performing chest physiotherapy, monitoring cardiopulmonary systems, checking patients' tissue specimens, and conducting pulmonary function tests. A primary and vital task of respiratory therapists is the management of ventilators and artificial breathing devices for those who have breathing problems.
