🚨🚨Change is coming 🚨🚨

Reminder! Starting on January 1, 2027, we're transitioning to a single examination called the Respiratory Therapy Examination to further minimize barriers to graduates as they enter the profession while maintaining the standards of excellence associated with the CRT and RRT credentials. The Clinical Simulation Exam (CSE) and Therapist Multiple-Choice (TMC) Exam will sunset this year on December 31, 2026. Get all of the details here: https://bit.ly/3KOGWW1

👏👏 the founder of the PHIL award, this is a well deserved honor!

As the year comes to a close, the FACES Foundation is reflecting on the moments that mattered most—honoring respiratory therapists, celebrating compassion, and recognizing the impact made possible through our shared commitment to care.

We celebrated Sharman Lamka, co-founder and president of the FACES Foundation. She was awarded the AARC Honorary Membership Award of her work supporting the respiratory profession.

The legislation would ease access to supplemental oxygen for Medicare beneficiaries. The SOAR Act would establish a new payment methodology for liquid oxygen, and for supplemental oxygen patients to access respiratory therapists.
