I'm Cecilia, thanks for watching! I just moved back to my home state and decided to start my own yt channel. Hoping to share some pieces of my life🤍 Let's be friends

RT class of '85...39 yrs in........a little advice....stay the course...trust your gut....and dont expect to be recognized for your expertise....be efficient...and have a short memory....they dont really prepare u in school...so make work friends u can trust....sometimes spouses dont get it. Be kind and be a hero. Who knew. 😊
Respiratory therapist’s are the most underrated but the greatest importance to patients lives , love my RT family!

@@charlesnewcomb3739I’m planning to apply wish me luck 😭❤️.
I just finished my last prerequisite and will be starting the RT program in the fall! Im so excited and this video furthered my motivation
3 semesters left in my RT program, can’t wait to start clinical in 2 weeks .. learned so much in the first semester and know everything your talking about. Good luck everyone!
Yay! Hope you have great preceptors. It all clicks during clinicals!!
Hey, I’m thinking of being an RT, is there anyway I can find out more on the subjects you take in RT school?
Is the program hard ? What does it mainly consist of?
watching this as im submitting my entrance form for my respiratory program!! Very excited to be able to help people
You do very well with the clinical narrative of your day and what's going on in your shift.
Thanks for inspiring so many young women to continue their education and enter the exciting field of allied healthcare.
There's literally so many opportunities and the need is critical, just as much as we need nurses, we also need an abundance of "technicians" not just Medical Assistants.
Thanks for letting us spend the shift with you

ROMANS 10:9-11 “If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you profess your faith and are saved. As Scripture says, “Anyone who believes in him will never be put to shame”
Matthew 11:28-30 “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.”
“For the Son of Man came to seek and to save the lost.””

True but also RT's are not Techs! They go through a rigorous program and hold a degree as well as having 2 board exams!
This video was awesome! I’m a tech and have always wondered what an RT’s day looks like! Thank you for everything you do 😊
I love my patient care techs! Thanks for watching 💕
RT is one of the unrecognized departments. I mean I asked my family about it but they don't know either. But it's fine I hope one day RT will be recognized by all. And not to be considered as a path where it is paid. At the end of the day it feels amazing to help patients.
One amazing thing about this is that we have to walk a lot, a nice exercise for RT.
I'm so thankful I found your video. This motivated me to start studying which I've been putting off since school break last month. The sem will start again in two weeks and I need to up my study game again. 💕
Thank you, andI hope it's been going well for ya! Always keep the end goal in mind
Keep posting girly !! Love your videos they are super relatable and relaxing lol I can see 100,000 subscribers in your future.
You’re the sweetest 😭 thank you!
So cool! Thank you for incorporating those Abgs in I thought that was amazing ☺️
Im coming from EMS into this (AEMT presently) and we see you RT. Seeing RT show up to a crashing dumpster fire we bring in and reign the situation under control is inspiring (especially when you bring it to the rural Level infinity county ED lol)
Seriously, watching your video makes me want to do this now!! At first I was super intimidated at the potential work load and my ability to perform in this profession, but it dosent seem so bad or crazy. I hope I can become an rrt!!
I'm so happy to hear that! I hope you do too
I’ve recently stumbled across your video, it give me and idea in the actual work field. I just recently started my program in Ariz. hopefully I get to see more videos to come!
I’m starting RT school in the fall so excited!
Started RT school when there wasn’t many RT youtubers out there so seeing these videos makes me so happy
Same!! Gotta represent
I’ll be starting RT school in the fall I’m excited!
Hey, I’m thinking of being an RT, is there anyway I can find out more on the subjects you take in RT school?
I honestly can’t wait to start My RT program .. this gives me motivation! I get nervous hearing about the math part but this motivates to keep pushing & think of the end goal !!! Congratulations on your career btw !!! ❤🎉
Thank you and congrats on your program!! The math is just temporary, you got this 💪🏽
I'm a student, yes there's many formulas and ranges that you have to know but it's not impossible if you put in the work. Good luck
Congratulations! I will start this fall as well, I am nervous but excited as well.
@@hajarenna9997 exciting!!!! Good luck on your journey we got this !!!!I

Just found your channel yesterday and really enjoying your videos! I’m starting RT school in Aug at age 38 and I’m excited, but also a little terrified if I’m being honest…how on EARTH will I ever learn all that info?!? And I weaned myself off caffeine a couple years ago, so also wondering where my extra energy is gonna come from! Haha! Thanks again for the great vids!
You’re going to be amazing!! Change is uncomfortable but the growth is inevitable 😍 you should try liquid IV in water, I feel like it gives me extra energy
I’ll have to try that, thanks!
Girl keep these vids coming! I love watching them lol
Thank you for the support 💕
I love your videos!! Please keep them coming, getting a peek in RTs lives today is so helpful! and you sound so awesome to work with. I look forward to hearing what your friend will say about NICU!! your vids get me hype for my clinicals in a year :)))
I paused the ABG result screen to try analyzing it LOL. I've only drawn from mannequin arms so far, though so my technique is probablly really shaky. how long did it take you to get accustomed to drawing and analyzing ABGs?
I want to do a NICU video so bad! Most people ace ABG sticks within the first month of work. Analyzing is perfected before graduation
Been waiting for a video!!! (:
Thank you for watching 🥺
Hey girl I hope you know I’m a soldier and I watch your video when getting ready to motivate me to finish school 😊
I’m from a military family, thank you for all you do 💕
I just found your videos ! I am stuck on becoming and RT or doing LVN, but watching your videos I'm starting to lean more towards RT!
They are completely different! RT's have more fun (; but I'm biased
i'm in central prosessing right now looking into RT... which did you decide on??
So pretty!!💗
Thanks girl 💕
I’m going to school in sept for RT, please keep up the videos!
Thank you for this vid! I'm currently in my second semester of RT school and we're learning a lot about mechanical vent! Watching your videos are a constant reminder of why I wanted to do this.
Also, what brand are your scrubs? They're so pretty!
Same, I'm in my second semester and the mechanical ventilation part is kicking my ass lol trying to differentiate the many ventilator dysynchronies, ARDS protocols. and initial settings
Hey, I’m thinking of being an RT, is there anyway I can find out more on the subjects you take in RT school?
Love watching your videos please keep it up 👍 💜
Thank you 🙏🏽
I’m looking forward to the 12s , I work in oil and gas industry and work minimum 5 12s all year long
RT student here 🤓 I enjoy your videos
Love all the medical language I don't understand it's like ur speaking Spanish lol but I'm in term 1 I can't wait to be done!
I love your videos!!💗💗
How physically demanding would u say being an rt is? Are you always running around and up and down the stairs?
I really want to pursue this career but am worried w the physical demands since I get fatigued and need to sit😳
It depends the size of the facility/ work you’ll be doing. Some RTs are PFT techs or work outpatient rehab which is less physical. At my hospital we still have to chart between patients which gives you a good 5-10 min of sitting. Plus quite a bit of downtime (1 hr) between rounds on less busy days.
thanks for sharing! I start next year😊
Starting RT school this August at 31 yrs old, Im nervous but definitely ready to start a new journey
I’m excited for your journey. It’s a rewarding career
Big nut bussa? Ahahah
@@embededusernamehahahaha😂
You are a great RT! An inspiration; thank you for sharing.
How many RTs work at the same time ? When there’s an emergency do they call all RTs ? Or just the one who’s working with such patient?
Nice video btw !
I work at a huge facility, we try to keep 13-15 RTs per shift. When there’s an emergency with your patient, you should be the first to respond. We have “swat RTs” that respond to every code in the hospital, and they’ll come to support you so you’re never alone. Other than that, you’re encouraged to help out if you’re nearby and have the time. Everywhere is different though 😊 it’s a good thing to ask during clinical
I love your videos
Thank you 😊
Hello cool video by the way. I'm a respiratory therapist myself but i'm just curious, what's a mid flow nasal cannula. I've never heard of that. Are you just using a regular nasal cannula with 15 liter flow ?
Yeah but the bore size is a little bigger diameter to accommodate the flow! 😊
I’m starting school this fall!
93% for the lung cancer patient in my facility would have been acceptable. But you seem like a perfectionist. I like it! I work in a Level 2 trauma center. I'm an RRT with 2 years of experience. 3 years as a CNA before that. and your HFNC looks so much more advanced than ours! I wish you the best!
I AM currently working as an LNA and was looking into RN School and instead going into RT School 😊I honestly feel my calling has become clearer to me.
I love you videos
❤️❤️❤️
🤍🤍🤍
I start RT school in March, can’t wait.
Sweeeet! The first quarter is the hardest and then it gets a little easier
@@ceciliaamorena3353 on finals week now, straight A's so far, that ABG you posted at the end of this video has me all sorts of bamboozled lmao....acid ph, alkalotic co2, low bicarb, a 24 o2?? im shook lol
You think being a paramedic going to RT school would be a hard transition ?
You are so cute and smart!
I start the RT program next month :)
I have a question that you may have answered in other videos but just incase you haven’t, I wanted to ask if you think it’s worth it to go for a bachelor’s degree or just go with an associate’s degree.
Worth it to get a bachelors degree imo (:
My RT program starts in 13 days!
You're so pretty 😍
Thank uu 💕
Does respiratory therapist use sethescope...?? Plz reply
As someone who just had a pretty bad accident I’m worried about being on my feet all day due to my injuries…..how often are you on your feet? Should this be a worry for me?
All day at the hospital (12hrs). There are other great options including PFT tech, home health/supply, sleep study, or outpatient therapy RTs which are very different
@@ceciliaamorena3353 I really appreciate this….more than you can imagine thank you so much !!!
i have a question, is math hard? am weak on math and that's the ear I have not able to get into this field.
Not hard, you only have to memorize the equations
What’s the best advice you can give someone in school now for RT? Any advice I am very nervous/stressed
The first quarter/semester is the hardest so give it all the energy you have! It gets easier. Also memorize your equations and PFTs early 😊
Starting clinical in 2 weeks. Lowkey nervous 😬
How hard are ABGs , or what is the hardest part of your job you learned in school
Hardest part is the vent! But everything becomes a lot easier once clinicals start
@@ceciliaamorena3353 do you have any tips for both ?
@@chastitywillis-jones2920 too many for the vent but ABGs, I like to roll a washcloth and place it under the bend of the wrist to hyperextend. Always take as much time as I need to feel the pulse so I never rush 😊
considering going into this field, just curious, what was your salary after graduation?
I think it’s $70-100k
Any advice on good questions to ask during clincial?
When I was a student, I loved to ask about different disease pathologies and tx courses because it helped me understand what we’re learning. As a preceptor, I like to show my students in real life what things in the hospital will be on the TMC!
As an RT are you allowed to wear your lab coat to work? I have been told yes and no
Where did u sleep in hospital??
How many RT’s work in a shift?
Found this video searching Day-in-life vids. Because I was in a Surg tech program and realized by clinical it wasn't for me. I am accepted into a RT program so Im trying to get more research.
Funny because I've been accepted into both surgical tech and the respiratory therapy, and have to make a decision soon. :/ I'm weighing both pros and cons. What didn't you like about the surgical tech program if you don't mind me asking?
@@Dee-jp6no for me, I wasn't aware you had to stand the entire time and keep your hands essentially mid chest. I was thinking in the future. Like will i be able to do this for years to come, as it will be hard on the body. I chose RT, because it offers growth as baby boomers are in the age of having respiratory issues, emphysema, and other chronic issues are going to grow, especially with the research on how vaping effects the lungs. pay is really good in nyc and after 1-2 years you can just do contract work away or local to make more money if youre in a region with lower or median pay.
I’m going back to school to become an RT
Show us your hospital dining hall.
Lmao!! That would be a tragedy
Was learning all the formulas hard, is it hard? I start fall. Never liked math. 😭
Not at all. Very basic math, just need to memorize. And it’s mainly for the board exams. I explain what I did to memorize in my new video, posting in the next few days!
Hay quá
How much do respiratory therapists get paid ?
Hello ma'am I need some guideline from u please reply
Where u been? We need more vlogs 🥺
I’ve been training a new part in the hospital and just started school again! I’m coming back so so soon promise!!!
What school did you go to?
Hii mam I'm a diploma in respiratory therapist freshers in India i can do the job in ur side (abroad) or if I can Bsc respiratory therapist after any chance to become a RRT jobs in a soudhi and what is the freshers salary there pls mam reply me 😯😯🥺🥺🥺
I am respiratory therapist from Pakistan... I am not RRT ,I have Pakistan license..... Am I eligible to work USA 🇺🇸... Is there any option for me??
What made you go for rrt instead of rn?
I don’t like dealing with poop, pee, or vomit.. aka the dirty work. Being an RN has so many more responsibilities that I don’t think pay compensates for. However the career growth is a lot more flexible
@@ceciliaamorena3353 👆🏿SPOT ON! 💯
Do you have days off? How well is work/life balance in this career?
Thanks I love your videos and you are gorgeous.
Wondering this as well!!
I love having 4 days off. Work/life balance is optimal imo because of this. I would never go back to a job where I had to work 5 days a week 😮💨 if you work somewhere with self scheduling, you could potentially have 5- 8 days off in a row
did you get an aossicates degree or bachelors ?
Associate's and I'm starting my bachelor's (:
How difficult was rt school and the job itself?
RT school is challenging like any other program, you have to work hard for it. The job itself, is only stressful as a new grad for a few months until you get a routine going. The best part of healthcare is that you'll learn something new every day. Some days are difficult and some days are easy breezy.
@@ceciliaamorena3353 Thank you for the insight 💯😎
What’s the pay rate like?
$53,000-87,000 depending on your state. It’s a lot more for travel contracts. I have a q&a video that shows a few state averages!

Hello friend my name is lory from India my study diploma respiratory therapist completed 2y back my experience 3 y so aney job opportunities in your country how to plan tell me once thank you 😊
Bachelors or Associates?
Associate's first and then you can decide if a bachelor's is the right move for you (:
@@ceciliaamorena3353 do you think it’s worth getting a bachelors?
Is the job hard compared to nursing?
In my opinion it's a lot easier if you're comparing it to bedside nursing. Less physically demanding for sure.
Hello I apply to RT program
Is this a food vlog?
How’s the career going? I start my prerequisites in may to get into a RT program. I’m super nervous.
