Job Description:

Join our team as a respiratory therapist in a fast-paced, neuro diagnostics unit in the vibrant city of New Orleans. This 13-week travel contract involves night shifts of 12 hours, from 7:00 PM to 7:30 AM, with a focus on managing advanced respiratory therapies including nitric oxide, ECMO, and bedside bronchoscopies. You will work with ventilators like the Puritan Bennett 840 and 980, and bipaps such as the Phillips V60. While the work keeps you engaged with cutting-edge technology, no two nights are the same — making this assignment as dynamic as the city itself.

Weather:

The weather around this time of year is generally warm and mild, with comfortably warm days and cooler evenings, perfect for exploring the city's historic streets or relaxing by the Mississippi River.

Fun Things To Do:

  • Cultural Tour of French Quarter: Explore historic architecture, jazz clubs, and lively street performances.
  • Swamp Tour: Take a day trip to see the unique wildlife of Louisiana's swamps, including alligators and herons.
  • Navigating the Riverwalk: Enjoy scenic views along the Mississippi River with shopping and dining options.
  • Garden District Tour: Visit historic mansions and lush gardens in this charming neighborhood.
  • ABITA Brewery Day Trip: Experience a local brewery tour just outside the city, featuring tastings and behind-the-scenes looks at craft brewing.
