Breathe Easy
Respiratory therapists deliver therapeutic care to patients with breathing or other disorders of the cardiopulmonary status and treat accordingly. The respiratory care staff also facilitates the continued pulmonary care for patients upon their release from the hospital. JRMC is the only facility in the area that performs complete pulmonary function testing including a state-of-the-art Auto Box which performs Plethsmography, a test to see how the lungs are functioning.
