Breathe Easier: Covid and Respiratory Therapy
Breathe Easier: Covid and Respiratory Therapy
Caring for Covid patients is a team effort. Working alongside the doctors, nurses and other specialists is a dedicated team of respiratory therapists (RTs) whose work is critical to patients who depend on them to breathe. UNCW respiratory therapy faculty will discuss how Covid-19 affects the respiratory system and how they treat patients. Explore how masks really do prevent the spread of the coronavirus, as we debunk some mask myths that can put you at risk. Featuring Program Coordinator Jamy Chulak, Director of Clinical Education Thomas Nietman, Clinical Assistant Professor Karen Blain, Clinical Assistant Professor Tina Frazier and Clinical Associate Professor Michele Pedicone.
