➡️ What are the Requirements for Respiratory Therapy and Nursing School?
Both professions, in general, require at least a one or two-year degree in order to practice. For both careers, after graduating from an accredited program, you must pass the licensure board exams in order to obtain the appropriate credentials which will allow you to apply for a license to practice in your state. Both careers provide the professional with respectable credentials although Nursing is far more widely known by the general public than Respiratory Therapy.
➡️ Nursing Educational Requirements
A Nurse can start out as an LVN/LPN. An LVN is a Licensed Vocational Nurse. These nurses usually did not attend a traditional “brick and mortar” school for nursing and may have tested to get their license through reciprocity. This means that they worked in another health field and had enough school credits to challenge the LVN-NCLEX exam. Most states do not allow Nurses who receive their LVN this way to practice outside of that state.
For example, New York and California are two states that have these types of Nurses and they cannot practice outside of the state without having to jump through a lot of hoops. An LPN, or Licensed Practical Nurse, is a trained Nurse who must go through a program that typically lasts 1-2 years. The length depends on how much of the pre-requisites were done before entering school. More commonly known, the field of Nursing also has Registered Nurses (RN). They are required to attend and pass a traditional program that provides 2-4 years of education. After passing the program, the Nurse then becomes eligible to sit for the NCLEX-RN exam.
➡️ Respiratory Therapy Educational Requirements
A Respiratory Therapist usually attends school for 2-4 years as well. After graduating from a CoARC Accredited Program, they become eligible to take the licensure board exams. The TMC Exam offers two passing scores, a low-cut score, and a high-cut score. In order to become eligible to take the CSE, you must first pass the TMC with the high-cut score. Then, if you make a passing score on the CSE, you will have earned the RRT credential. It’s still possible to practice as a CRT in the United States. With that said, each and every year, more states are requiring applicants to have earned the RRT credential.
➡️ Which School Program is Harder?
When talking about the difficulty of Nursing and Respiratory Therapy School, it’s really hard to quantify because there are a lot of variables at play. Either program could be more difficult for some than for others. Not to mention, some schools simply have more strict requirements than others. Taking that into consideration, it’s reasonable to say that both programs are fairly difficult. Neither one would be classified as easy. In all likelihood, the difficulty of each program is probably about even. Both careers have general education requirements, such as English, electives, A&P, biology, and chemistry. Also, both programs require clinical rotations with certified instructors as well.
