Respiratory Therapist - Home Ventilator

GHR Travel Nursing

Respiratory Care Navigator - RRT In-Home
Elmhurst, IL


You spent years mastering ventilator management in the ICU or PICU. You know what it takes to keep the most complex patients stable. But somewhere along the way, the 12-hour rotating shifts, the revolving door of patients, and the distance from meaningful outcomes started to wear on you.


This role was built for clinicians like you.


What This Role Actually Is


As a Respiratory Care Navigator, you'll carry a dedicated caseload of ventilator-dependent pediatric and ALS patients - in their homes, on their terms.


You're the clinical expert who bridges the gap between the hospital and home, ensuring these patients and their families have everything they need to stay safe, stable, and out of the ER.


You'll be the person they call. The one who knows their equipment, their history, and their family by name.


Why This Role Stands Out

  • Monday-Friday, 8:30-5:00 - no nights, no weekends, no rotating shifts
  • Autonomy to manage your own caseload and territory - you're trusted as the expert
  • Deep, longitudinal relationships with patients and families - you'll see your impact in real time
  • Work that blends critical care expertise with education, advocacy, and genuine human connection
  • Get out of the hospital without leaving clinical practice behind
What You'll Do
  • Manage and monitor a caseload of home ventilator-dependent patients (pediatric and/or ALS)
  • Perform comprehensive respiratory assessments and reassessments in the home setting
  • Provide hands-on ventilator and equipment training to patients and caregivers
  • Set up, troubleshoot, and optimize highly technical respiratory equipment
  • Serve as the primary clinical liaison between patients, families, and physician teams
  • Support care coordination and continuity across the full care team
  • Maintain accurate clinical documentation per regulatory standards
What You Bring
  • Active, unrestricted RRT or RN license (required)
  • Experience with pediatric and/or ALS ventilator management (required)
  • Tracheostomy care experience (required)
  • Critical care, PICU, or home health respiratory background - ideal
  • Familiarity with ventilator platforms such as Care Orchestrator or Astral - a plus
  • Valid driver's license and willingness to travel within your assigned territory
  • A clinician who communicates well, works independently, and genuinely cares about outcomes
Compensation & Benefits
  • Competitive salary based on experience
  • Full medical, dental, and vision coverage
  • 401(k) with company match
  • Paid time off and paid holidays
  • Life and disability insurance
  • Employee assistance and wellness programs

This is a rare opportunity for a respiratory clinician ready to trade shift work for something with more depth, more autonomy, and more meaning - without stepping back from the clinical complexity that keeps you sharp.
