network, network, network. Take your NPS..that opens some doors. Be careful of submitting resumes online, they seem to fall into cyberspace.

Many places won't even accept a hard copy of a resume in Human Resources. I think your best chance would be to go directly to the RT manager with your resume. Might stand a better chance of getting in the door. Look up Justin Misuraca on facebook. He is an RT in Denver. Send him a message and see if he knows of any openings. Good Luck!

American Association for Respiratory Care Many states now have a requirement for continuing education credits in Ethics. Remember that the AARC has low-cost offerings for you online.

www.aarc.org
This course is an online audio/visual presentation and exam that teaches you the theories of ethical decision making as it applies to: scope of practice, informed consent, confidentiality, discrimination, conflicts of interest, illegal or unethical acts, fraud, research, and more.

From what I have been told by several Healthcare providers who have benefited from someone's will (they were the purson's caretaker!) this is a practice that happens very frequently. Where are the ETHICS police when this was all going down?

The TV show "Three Rivers" portrayed an end-of-life situation of an ALS patient (excellent acting) - I recommend that show as a discussion point.

Ditto, the therapists take care of it, sad, but true. Drives me crazy how the entire hospital goes crazy for nurses week, and we aren't even recognized outside of the department ;o(
