Prerequisite: RSC 200 , RSC 210 , RSC 212 and RSC 240 Lecture: 2 hours
  • 3.00 Credits

    Supervised clinical course providing instruction, observation and ability to perform advanced adult-ventilator care, advanced artificial-airway management, intensive diagnostic and therapeutic procedures, and home care, in a health and care setting. Direct patient contact and application of theory and techniques are emphasized. Prerequisite: RSC 130 and RSC 150 Laboratory: 16 hours (course fee required)
  • 1.00 Credits

    Forum for discussion of topics included in the NBRC entry-level exam matrix. Self-assessment exams are included. The student will develop a detailed self-analysis of their understanding of exam content to assist in preparation for NBRC CRT exam.

  • 3.00 Credits

    Supervised clinical course providing instruction, observation and ability to perform advanced adult-ventilator care, advanced artificial airway management, intensive diagnostic and therapeutic, in a variety of health-care settings. Rotations in neonatal/pediatric ventilator care, long-term care and home care will be included in this course or RSC 240 , depending upon clinical scheduling. Includes expansion of the expectations and objectives from RSC 240 , and enhancement of skill development. Direct patient contact and application of theory and techniques are emphasized. This course is combined with RSC 281 so students can learn from each other and work as a team during clinical rotations. Prerequisite: RSC 200 , RSC 209 , RSC 210 , RSC 212 and RSC 240 Laboratory: 16 hours (course fee required)
  • 1.00 Credits

    Forum for discussion of topics included in the NBRC advanced practitioner exam matrices. Self-assessment exams are included. The student will develop a detailed self-analysis of their understanding of exam content to assist in preparation for NBRC WRRT and CSE exams. Students are required to pass WRRT and CSE self-assessment exams upon course completion to graduate from the program. Prerequisite: RSC 241 or RRT eligible Lecture: 1 hour (course fee required)
  • 3.00 Credits

    Work experience will integrate classroom theory with on-the-job training. Intended for graduates of entry-level program with CRT and RCP who are currently employed in respiratory care and want to upgrade skills to RRT-eligible level. The college will assist student in securing employment in respiratory care, if necessary, but it is best if student performs experience at current employment. Under the supervision of the college and the employer, the student participates in job-training experiences that meet the competencies included in RSC 240 .
