Embark on a transformative journey as a Registered Respiratory Therapist in California’s Ukiah region, where skilled clinicians shape outcomes and communities thrive because of your expertise. This multi-week assignment, launching on 02/09/2026, invites you to bring compassionate, evidence-based respiratory care to patients across diverse settings while advancing your specialty in a supportive, growth-focused environment. As you step into this role, paint a vivid picture of how your work saves lives, improves comfort, and accelerates recovery—then take a break to savor California’s beauty. From the timeless majesty of towering redwoods to the sun-kissed hills of wine country, from quiet river valleys to vibrant small towns, California offers endless opportunities to recharge after impactful shifts and to explore nature, culture, and cuisine at every turn.

Location Benefits: Ukiah combines the warmth of a close-knit community with convenient access to the broader treasures of Northern California. Practicing here means you’ll enjoy a tranquil pace, scenic drives, and outdoor adventures—hiking in misty groves, tasting local wines, or strolling along scenic parks—complementing the rewarding clinical work you do. The assignment also opens doors to opportunities across California and beyond, giving you the chance to experience different hospital environments, patient populations, and operational styles within a nationally supported framework. This flexibility not only broadens your professional perspective but enriches your life with diverse experiences, professional connections, and the chance to grow a resilient portfolio of respiratory care skills. You’ll be part of a system that values patient-first care, collaborative teamwork, and continuous improvement, all while enjoying the stability of a structured travel opportunity with dependable weekly compensation and robust support.

Role Specifics and Benefits: In this position, you will deliver core respiratory therapy services under physician oversight, including evaluation of respiratory status, administration of prescribed therapies (oxygen, aerosols, bronchodilators, airway clearance techniques, humidity therapy, and advanced modalities as appropriate), and the management of ventilated and non-ventilated patients. You’ll monitor patient responses, adjust treatments as directed, document progress, and communicate clearly with nurses, physicians, respiratory care leaders, and families to ensure coordinated care. This role emphasizes professional growth within the Respiratory Therapy specialty through exposure to a range of clinical scenarios, opportunities to refine critical thinking, and pathways toward additional certifications and advanced practice. The position features a competitive weekly pay range of $1,698–$1,768, with the potential for extension opportunities and housing assistance to ease transition. While there are no guaranteed hours for this assignment, you’ll benefit from consistent scheduling expectations, with the stability of a defined multi-week engagement and ongoing options to extend. Our program emphasizes comprehensive support, including 24/7 assistance while traveling with the company, ensuring you have real-time access to clinical, logistical, and personal resources whenever you need them. A dedicated onboarding team will guide you through credentialing, orientation, and integration into the local care teams, while ongoing clinical mentors help you navigate complex cases and expand your scope of practice. Note that the hours and pay rates listed are estimates and may vary; final compensation packages and guaranteed hours will be confirmed during the hiring process.
