Trying this again…happy Respiratory Care Week to all the Respiratory Therapists out there. COVID tried to take us out, but we are still standing strong by the grace of God. Hug your work family & enjoy this special week. If you know an RT, take a second to honor them this week. It will mean more to them than you will ever know. ❤️

@okiegungirl my ride or die, soul sister, partner in crime. Work would not be the same without you.

It’s always great to gather together outside of work not wearing scrubs and celebrating one another. So happy for our dear co-worker, the lovely bride 👰🏻 #nurselife #respiratorytherapistlife #scrubslife #workfamily #bestjobever (at Galletto Ristorante) https://www.instagram.com/p/B2Dqzy8n5dJ/?igshid=1qldauf2r0r5i

Nabbed Photo Booth Frame - So around 2:45 am I’m checking for new orders before my next rounds and I notice two people walking off down the hall with the photo booth frame I did for Respiratory Care Week. I realize it was two of the therapist from our pediatric side. They wanted to borrow it to take some photos of their team working that night. I didn’t mind them borrowing it, asking would have been nice though. 😏 . . . #nationalrespiratorycareweek #respiratorycareweek #respiratoryproblems #rrt #rtstudent #respiratorytherapist #Respiratorytherapy #respiratorytherapistlife #registeredrespiratorytherapist #respiratory #RespiratoryCare #triberespiratorytherapy #rtswagger #rtswag#rtgifts #respiratorytherapistgifts #tdgiftsolutions (at Jackson, Mississippi) https://www.instagram.com/p/BpVVf3bB0oE/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1nvurwft0k40l

Who ever thought that working in healthcare would require this fancy outfit on a daily basis??? 18 years of this, and this is the new normal. You just have to go with the flow to stay safe, or get out. I love it too much to get out ❤️. Have a blessed day my friends. Stay safe & please wear a mask 🙏

[okiehuntinggirl]

We walked into work this morning to find these. It’s the little things that you do for your friends & family that mean big things ❤️.
