@ineedrtSTAT @aarc_tweets I know that they head to the capital each year because I’ve seen the interviews and such. So not sure.

Are you bein re-fit tested for new N95s coming into your facilities?

[NameCantBeBlank @AlbuterolisLife]

Is your hospital fit testing them for different styles of #N95 masks that are coming in to their facilities? Are you going into rooms respirators on that you haven’t been fit tested for? #PPE #PPEshortage How safe are you wearing a mask that wasn’t tested on you? AFAF.

My ICU team just extubated a patient with COVID for the first time in ~10 days. After a week+ of badness, we needed a win.

[Respiratory Learning @RespiratoryEDU]

They need to know this. Being intubated in the #ICU is terrifying enough when you’re NOT in an enclosed room with loud fans whirring and no one in the room with you for long periods of time.

"But ventilators alone aren’t much use to patients without respiratory therapists — the medical workers trained to operate them." A great article showcasing the work of RTs. #RTSTRONG
