Being a respiratory therapist piqued my interest the most because one of my sons has acute asthma problems. When he has an attack, it is the worst feeling in the world to not be able to help. He has a nebulizer machine as well as an inhaler. Respiratory therapists work most often in intensive care and operating rooms, but are also found in outpatient clinics and home-health environments (Myers, 2013). Patient education on inhaled medications and delivery device knowledge transitions nicely to the concept of the Respiratory Therapist as a disease manager for patients with chronic respiratory diseases.
Social work was another allied health profession that piqued my interest. Working at Apria Healthcare we worked with a lot of social workers
