Respiratory Therapist I

Join our team at the Grande Prairie Regional Hospital (GPRH), a new state of the art facility that opened in December 2021 with the capacity to serve our ever-growing community. Grande Prairie serves a population of approximately 370,000 people including the city and surrounding areas, offering all the urban amenities with that small town feel. In addition to a competitive rate of pay, AHS currently has a Remote Retention Allowance in place to an annual maximum of $3,000. This allowance is non-pensionable and is payable on an hourly basis for all hours paid at the basic rate of pay. Relocation Assistance may be available, along with great benefits and a lower cost of living compared to other urban areas.

As a Respiratory Therapist I, you will assess patients (clients, resident), develop and implement respiratory therapy care plans and monitor their progress. You will be responsible for various diagnostic and therapeutic equipment and interventions. You will collaborate with various clinical teams and groups to enhance clinical outcomes.
