Ethics in Respiratory Therapy Care
In some instances, respiratory therapists find themselves in toxic clinical or work environment situations that could make them want to "tap out" or "throw in the towel." Abandonment, tapping out, and throwing in the towel are not the same. Can a respiratory therapist throw in the towel or tap out on a patient? This lecture will unpack this question from an ethics point of view. It will define abandonment laws in several states and discuss how to step away from a toxic situation or environment. It will also review real-life scenarios familiar to all healthcare providers and provide the tools and information needed to handle a toxic situation while at the same time ensuring that the patient remains safe.

Strategies for Empowering Diversity in the Workplace
Diversity in the workplace is not just a hot topic; it can be an asset to maximize innovation and advancement in the workplace. Many health systems recognize the value of a diverse workforce as we attempt to close the gap of healthcare disparities and provide care in the communities we serve. The importance of a diverse workforce is amplified in the respiratory care profession. As frontline caregivers who attend to the needs of the highest-acuity patients, RTs must be equipped with the cultural competency required to ensure equitable care for all. This course will define diversity, review recent statistics, and address the clinical impact and business case for workplace diversity. It will also provide learners with data-access, interviewing, and community engagement tools that can be deployed to enhance the diversity in their organizations or respiratory care departments.

The goal is to recover and come out better. This lecture is designed to provide learners with tools to identify the signs of work-related compassion fatigue, stress, and burnout. It will also identify practical skills to help you and your coworkers manage stressful situations.
