Respiratory care is one of the fastest growing specialties in the medical field and among the most rapidly expanding, in-demand occupations in any industry. As the percentage of middle-aged and elderly in the population continues to increase, so does the incidence of respiratory and cardiopulmonary conditions. There is and will continue to be a growing need for qualified Respiratory Therapists to provide care and treatment to patients in the years to come.

Apollo College's nationally accredited Respiratory Care program is designed to provide the knowledge and skills needed to meet the demand for these highly trained specialists. Through classroom lecture, laboratory experience and clinical instruction, the program helps prepare students to meet nationally accepted standards. And, as the role of Respiratory Therapists expands to include disease prevention, emergency care and other vital functions, Apollo College graduates will be ready to fulfill the growing opportunities.

The RESPIRATORY CARE field is expected to grow twice as fast as most other occupations over the next 10 years, according to surveys*.
