RTT 131 - Clinical Practicum I

Institution:

Luzerne County Community College

Subject:

Respiratory Therapy

Description:

This course is the student's first clinical practicum in respiratory therapy. This course is designed to provide the student with a practical basis to apply, refine, and demonstrate mastery of respiratory care in general and subacute medical and surgical units; its purpose also is the establishment of performance expectations not unlike those encountered as a graduate practitioner on the job. The course combines classroom (didactic) instruction with extensive clinical application and refinement of skills learned in the program to date. Clinical application and refinement will be realized by assignment to several different clinical sites and day and evening shifts.
