For you professionals in the field and anyone else who knows or has considered this field.
What is the difference between the various people who work in the respiratory and sleep study field?
My local Community College has a Respiratory Therapy Associate Degree.
I'm interested in ultimately being the person to hook you up and do your sleep study, or reads your sleep study.
Is Respiratory Therapy the best place to start? I have a BSN in Nursing from 1984 so I've been out of academia for a while.
What does it take to be a sleep technician? What are the levels of expertise?
I asked a similar question a while back but was not specific enough about what I wanted to know
What would those of you in the sleep study field recommend as the way to go.
Would some of you be kind enough to detail your education and present job?
From what I've seen Respiratory Therapists in a hospital setting work their butts off. So do the folks who do sleep studies, but it seems a different pace though I'm sure no less challenging.
Thanks,
Marry Zimlich
