Are you a Respiratory Therapist looking to make a change in the New Year? Have you dreamed of living in a vibrant community nestled between the Nashville, TN and Knoxville, TN metro areas, where professional growth, autonomy, and quality of life go hand-in-hand? This is your chance to join an outstanding regional medical center in a location that offers an appealing mix of affordability, outdoor adventure, and small-town charm.

The Respiratory Therapist will provide care for both adult and pediatric patients, including attending all C-sections and supporting critical care procedures such as arterial lines and bronchoscopies in the ICU. This role has the support of a Respiratory Department Director, working alongside a Respiratory Clinical Coordinator, Respiratory Educator, and a team around 40 RRTs. Respiratory Therapist candidates with two years of hospital experience are encouraged to apply, and there are presently night shift full-time openings available that include night shift differential pay.

The respiratory therapy team has great relationships with physicians and the department has tenured leadership.

This regional medical center has a long tradition of compassionate, innovative healthcare and serves as a primary referral hub for a multi-county area. The hospital reinvests significantly in facilities and services to support its mission of building healthier communities, and staff work collaboratively across specialties to deliver patient-centered care every day. With a broad continuum of inpatient and outpatient services, this institution emphasizes teamwork, excellence, and empowerment for its clinicians.

The area of Tennessee located centrally between Nashville and Knoxville is known for scenic parks, lakes, waterfalls, and trails for hiking, fishing, kayaking, and more, ideal for those who enjoy outdoor lifestyles. Historic downtown districts feature local shops, dining, and cultural attractions, while community events and a welcoming local vibe make it a great place to put down roots. You’re far enough away from the hustle and bustle of the city but close enough to enjoy big-city life when you want to.

This role offers competitive compensation, generous benefits, and professional development support. Qualifying candidates may also receive competitive relocation assistance to the area. Respiratory Therapists also enjoy a self-scheduled model, a collaborative culture with physicians, and opportunities to perform advanced procedures that may not be available at other facilities. This is your chance to make a meaningful impact on patient care while embracing a high quality of life in a supportive Tennessee community.
