项目概述
The Mansfield University Respiratory Therapy Program is a full-time, 四年, Bachelor of Science (BS) degree program. It is a collaborative program with Mansfield University’s Department of Health Sciences and Guthrie Robert Packer Hospital. Students spend the first two years on the campus in Mansfield, PA completing program pre-requisites and general education courses. After meeting the program pre-requisites, students will spend their second two years plus one summer engaging in respiratory specific didactic course, clinical courses and hands on experiences at Robert Packer Hospital in 塞尔, PA, where they complete classroom and clinical experience. Students will also have the opportunity to rotate to several other clinical affiliates gaining valuable hands on clinical experiences.
The respiratory therapy courses consist of tightly coordinated classroom, laboratory and clinical training conducted Monday through Friday primarily during the day. In all clinical courses, the clinical instructor provides ongoing feedback to the student through weekly written performance evaluations. Each student provides the program with weekly feedback through completion of online clinical instructor and rotation evaluation surveys. Guthrie Robert Packer Hospital is the primary site of clinical training. Each student’s clinical experience assignments will also include rotations to Arnot Ogden Medical Center, 埃尔迈拉, NY; 康宁 Hospital, 康宁, NY; United Health 服务 Wilson Regional Medical Center, 约翰逊市, NY; 丹维尔 Geisinger Medical Center, 丹维尔, PA; 特洛伊 Community Hospital, 特洛伊, PA; and Guthrie Med Supply Depot, 塞尔, PA. Regarding clinical experience assignments to off-site facilities, all students are responsible for their own transportation, 餐, and housing expenses (if applicable).
At the end of their studies, students are awarded the BS in 呼吸道护理 and are immediately eligible to sit for the Therapist Multiple Choice Exam (TMC) and then Clinical Simulation Exam (CSE) given by the National Board of 呼吸道护理 (NBRC) to obtain their Registered Respiratory Therapist (RRT) credential.
